Abstract
HGRF (iv 50 .mu.g) was administered to 6 normal young adult males at 09.00 and 20.00 h on different days. Nocturnal GH secretion was monitored during polygraphic sleep recordings on both control nights and nights following hGRF administration. Sleep-related GH secretion and sleep parameters were not affected by dirunal hGRF administration.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
