Study | Mean height gain | Duration of therapy (mean) | Adult height reported | Comment |
Finkelstein 2002[1] (meta-analysis) | 4 to 6 cm | 5.3 years | Yes | Short stature defined as stature <10th percentile. Large number of patients: 1089. |

Counts 2015[3] (randomized controlled trial) | 1.3 SDS (approximately 8 cm) | 4 years | No | Height gain calculated by the height SDS change from baseline to the end of the study (2 to 4 years).
