Abstract

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of recombinant human growth hormone(rhGH) for growth hormone deficiency(GHD)with the relative risk of neoplasms,cancer mortality and the second neoplasms. Methods The research study about the application of recombinant human growth hormone in treating GHD and cancer-related literature searched in Pubmed,EMbase,The CNKI,CBM,the Cochrane Library and so on.According to the Cochrane Handbook,literature was screened,methodological quality assessed,date extrated and meta-analysis conducted using Revman 5.3 software. Results A total of 16 research references were including,the results of meta-analysis showed that the risk of neoplasms in GHD patients treated with rhGH was not higher (RR=0.76,95%CI was 0.59~0.90,P<0.05).Application of rhGH treatment,the overall mean neoplasms standardized mortality ratios(SMR) for treated patients was not significantly increased,and that rhGH did not increase mortality in patients with cancer(SMR=0.90,95%CI was 0.77~1.05,P>0.05).But for patients who previously suffered from cancer,after the application of rhGH,which could further increase neoplasms risk 1.3 times (RR=2.30,95%CI was 1.61~3.27,P<0.05). Conclution The relative risk and the SMR of neoplasms in GHD patients treated with rhGH is not higher,but the second neoplasms risk increases by about 1.3 times.
