Mapping the true burden of Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency

Our latest study, published in BMJ Open, set out to discover the true long-term impacts of adult Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD).

The takeaway: Adult GHD places a complex burden on patients. The condition is associated with an increased risk of premature mortality, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, depression and socioeconomic challenges such as unemployment.

Using the CPRD Aurum database, we delivered the first large-scale matched cohort study in two decades to map the burden of this condition.

We've summarised the key takeaway message below.

To bring this study to life, Momentum Data provided end-to-end project support.

Leveraging the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) Aurum database, we delivered the first large-scale matched cohort study in two decades to comprehensively map the physical, mental and socioeconomic burden of adult Growth Hormone Deficiency in England.

Our core contributions included:

  • Study Conception and Delphi Design

  • Survey Execution and Panel Management

  • Statistical Analysis and Data Visualisation

  • Medical Writing and Publication Support
