- Abstract
Plasma C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) forms correlate with linear growth velocity in juveniles. In hyperthyroid children, plasma CNP products fall in parallel with height velocity and thyroid hormones (TH) as euthyroidism is restored. The effect of TH on CNP forms after completion of endochondral growth is unknown.
