Objective: Late night spontaneous growth hormone (GH) pulses may influence the pituitary GH response to provocation tests. We evaluated GH response during arginine-insulin-tolerance test (AITT) after a GH peak during a short spontaneous nocturnal profile (SSNP) in children with short stature or low growth velocity. Design: Using SSNP and subsequent AITT, we examined 257 children 4–18 years old (138 (53.7%) males) recruited from three hospitals. Medical records were reviewed retrospectively. Refractory children were defined as a GH peak ≥7 μg/L during SSNP but no GH peak ≥7 μg/L during AITT. Results: In total, 201/257 children had a GH peak ≥7 μg/L at SSNP and/or AITT. Of these, 21.9% were refractory. The proportion of males (p = 0.033) and body mass index (BMI) standard deviation score (SDS) (p = 0.037) were higher in the refractory group than in children with a GH peak ≥7 μg/L during AITT. The median period between last GH peak ≥7 μg/L during SSNP and GHmax at AITT was 210 (30–390) minutes. The GHmax at AITT occurred 30 min earlier for children without a peak ≥7 μg/L during the SSNP (p = 0.004). The number of refractoriness differed somewhat between the hospitals (p = 0.025). Conclusions: Many children with short stature were refractory at testing; among them we found few clinical characteristics. Refractoriness might be influenced by some differences in procedure, but needs to be considered when evaluating GH response in children.
