Relationship Between Final Height and Health Outcomes in Adults With Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: United Kingdom Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia Adult Study Executive (CaHASE)

Treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) in childhood focuses on growth and development and adult final height (FH) is a measure of effective treatment. We hypothesized that shorter adults will have more severe underlying disease and worse health outcomes. This was a cross-sectional analysis of 199 adults with CAH. FH and quality of life were expressed as z-scores adjusted for midparental target height or UK population height. FH...
