THERAPEUTIC USE OF PITUITARY OESENSITIZATION WITH A LONG-ACTING LHRM AGONIST: A POTENTIAL NEW TREATMENT FOR IDIOPATHIC PRECOCIOUS PUBERTY*
Abstract
A two year girl with idiopathic true precocious puberty was treated with a long-acting LHRH agonist, D-Trp6-Pro9-NEt-LHRH (LHRHa). Prior to therapy, the patient demonstrated pulsatile gonadotropin secretion during both night and day, a pubertal response to exogenous LHRH, and an elevated plasma estradiol level. After eight weeks of therapy (4 microgram/kg daily), a mean gonadotropin levels fell to the prepubertal range, there was no evidence of pulsatile discharge of gonadotropins nor any response to exogenous LHRH, and plasma estradiol levels became undetectable. No adverse drug reactions were encountered and all effects of therapy were reversed following cessation of treatment for two months. LHRH analogs may offer a new approach to the therapy of idiopathic precocious puberty and merit further study.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
