Reference Intervals for Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-I) From Birth to Senescence: Results From a Multicenter Study Using a New Automated Chemiluminescence IGF-I Immunoassay Conforming to Recent International Recommendations

Abstract

Using large cohorts of well-characterized subjects from different centers allowed construction of robust reference ranges for a new automated IGF-I assay. The strict adherence to recent consensus criteria for IGF-I assays might facilitate clinical application of the results.
