AUTHORS ' CONCLUSIONS Addition of ox and rolone to the GH therapy led to a modest increase in the final adult height of girls aged up to 18 years with TS .
BACKGROUND The final adult height of untreated girls aged up to 18 years with Turner syndrome ( TS ) is approximately 20 cm shorter compared with healthy females .
Treatment with growth hormone ( GH ) increases the adult height of people with TS .
The effects of adding the and rogen , ox and rolone , in addition to GH are unclear .
Therefore , we conducted this systematic review to investigate the benefits and harms of ox and rolone as an adjuvant therapy for people with TS treated with GH .
OBJECTIVES To assess the effects of ox and rolone on growth hormone-treated girls aged up to 18 years with Turner syndrome .
Androgen-responsive aspects of cognition in girls with Turner syndrome.
Turner syndrome ( TS ) represents a unique , sex hormone-deficient model in which to study the biological effects of and rogen treatment ( replacement ) on cognition in females because TS girls have gonadal dysgenesis and absent ovarian and rogen and estrogen production . We investigated the effects of and rogen replacement therapy in TS girls , ages 10 - 14 yr , on cognitive function . A total of 64 TS girls were r and omized to receive ox and rolone or placebo  for 2 yr . They had a cognitive evaluation of four domains ( verbal abilities , spatial cognition , executive function , and working memory ) at baseline , 1 , and 2 yr of the study . In addition , all subjects were examined for study safety every 6 months . Three of the four domains studied did not change significantly in response to ox and rolone treatment ( verbal abilities , spatial cognition , and executive function ) . In contrast , the working memory summary score had a significant group by time interaction . The ox and rolone-treated group demonstrated improved performance after 2 yr , compared with the placebo group ( P < 0.03 ) . Minimal or no side effects were observed . In conclusion , ox and rolone treatment for 2 yr improves working memory in adolescent girls with TS . What this degree of improvement will mean in real life terms for TS girls remains to be determined
