Text: Compared to controls, GHD subjects had higher LDL cholesterol (4. 0 + / - 0. 8 vs. 3. 5 + / - 0. 9 mmol/l, P < 0. 01) and higher triglyceride concentrations (2. 3 + / - 1. 5 vs. 1. 1 + / - 0. 7 mmol/l, P < 0. 001) but lower HDL cholesterol (1. 1 + / - 0. 3 mmol/l vs. 1. 4 + / - 0. 4 mmol/l, P < 0. 01), lower levels of HPOs (0. 72 + / - 0. 35 vs. 0. 92 + / - 0. 20 microm, P < 0. 01) and lower basal (2. 5 + / - 1. 5 vs. 4. 5 + / - 2. 3 mV/5 x 10 (5) neutrophils, P < 0. 01) and peak post-activation levels (23. 2 + / - 11. 1 vs. 34. 4 + / - 15. 6 mV/5 x 10 (5) neutrophils, P < 0. 01) of neutrophil O (-) (2) - generation.
