“…In a rat model of colitis, investigators reported that the profile of plasma LH and FSH concentrations was similar to levels observed in control female rats38, suggesting that hypopituitarism may not be the cause of growth impairment in CD36,45. In contrast, others have reported diminished plasma LH and FSH levels in CD46,47 and cystic fibrosis, to a lesser extent in females than males48. Thus, the existing evidence is mixed and deserves further study to advance our understanding of the impact of CD on hypothalamic-pituitary function and statural growth.…”

“…This aspect of regional enteritis in children was reported in some detail in the paper by Sobel et al (1962). In addition, growth disturbance can be found on careful review of the young patients with the disease reported in available series of cases but is generally mentioned only casually (Crohn and Yunich, 1941).…”

“…29 In 1986, low IGF-1 was associated with poor growth in these children 30 ; over the following decade, it was realised that the depressed concentration was a direct consequence of inflammation, 8 10 and not merely the result of poor energy intake or undernutrition. The best strategy to increase IGF-1 and therefore to improve growth is the resolution of inflammation.…”
