Study Summary

Hypotheses: 1. The prevalence of endocrinopathies, and growth hormone (GH) deficiency in particular, among young children diagnosed with optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH) is higher than is commonly thought. 2. Early treatment of children with ONH and GH-deficiency can prevent adverse outcomes. Aims: 1. Determine the prevalence and types of endocrinopathies in children diagnosed with ONH. 2. Correlate endocrine outcome with radiographic, ocular, and developmental findings in children with ONH. 3. Examine the effect of GH treatment on growth and obesity in children with ONH, GH-deficiency, and either subnormal or normal growth compared to children with ONH that are not GH-deficient. 4. Compare growth outcomes between children with isolated GH-deficiency and those with multiple hormone deficiencies.

Primary Outcome

Primary outcome measures included change in stature, weight, BMI, and weight-for-stature z-scores over the course of the study. Z-score indicates how many standard deviations an element is from the mean. It is calculated as z = (x - µ) σ, where µ is the mean of the population, and σ is the standard deviation of the population. A positive z-score indicates a datum above the mean, while a negative z-score indicates a datum below the mean. All z-scores were obtained using Epi Info ™ 3.5.4. (Centers
