Initial IGF1-SDS was negatively correlated with age (Rho −0.43, P <.001) and positively with initial volume (Rho 0.28, P = .03).Furthermore, sAOT GH2h correlated with initial tumor diameter (Rho 0.56,P < .001), initial tumor volume (Rho 0.58, P <.001), and with several final parameters such as final GH (Rho 0.65, P< .001), final IGF1-SDS (Rho 0.36, P = .02), final tumor diameter andvolume (Rho 0.66, P < .001 and (Rho 0.67, P < .001respectively). The gene discussed is IGF1; the disease is neoplasm.
