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 .
Acceleration of growth in Turner syndrome patients treated with growth hormone: summary of three-year results.
In 1983 , a multicenter , collaborative , prospect i ve study was begun to investigate the efficacy of human growth hormone ( hGH ) , alone and in combination with ox and rolone , in girls with Turner syndrome . While subjects in the control group grew 3.8 cm/yr ( -0.1 SD for untreated Turner patients ) , subjects receiving hGH alone  grew 6.6 , 5.4 and 4.6 cm/yr in years 1 - 3 , respectively ( + 3.1 , + 2.0 , + 1.4 SD ) . Subjects in the combination therapy group grew 9.8 , 7.4 and 6.1 cm/yr ( + 6.6 , + 4.3 , + 3.0 SD ) . Turner subjects in both treatment groups showed increased in Bayley-Pinneau predicted adult heights and in Turner projected adult heights
