Pediatr Allergy Immunol . 2009 May; 21(1 Pt 2):e190-8. PMID: 19422602
When validated recommendations for standardization and measurement procedures are used short-term assessment of lower leg growth by knemometry is a highly accurate and reproducible method for assessment of systemic activity...

BioDrugs . 2007 Nov; 13(5):347-57. PMID: 18034541
Since inhaled and intranasal corticosteroids may be systemically bioavailable, risk of growth suppression cannot be ruled out in children treated with these compounds. The mechanisms by which exogenous corticosteroids can...

Pediatr Allergy Immunol . 2006 Nov; 17(8):613-9. PMID: 17121590
Inhaled beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) with the propellant hydrofluoroalkane-134a (HFA) has been designed to be equivalent in terms of safety to chlorofluorocarbon (CFC)-formulated metered dose inhalers (MDI). The aim was to...

Ann Hum Biol . 2006 May; 33(2):135-41. PMID: 16684688
Background: Knemometry studies of growth suppressive effects of inhaled glucocorticoids in children with asthma usually allow participating children to use concomitant inhaled beta2-agonists. Systemic beta2-agonists, however, have been found to...

Wolthers O
J Med Ethics . 2006 May; 32(5):292-7. PMID: 16648281
Background: Knowledge about assent or dissent of children to non-therapeutic research is poor. Objectives: To assess sociodemographic characteristics in healthy children and adolescents who were invited to participate in non-therapeutic...

Wolthers O, Heuck C
Allergy . 2004 Oct; 59(11):1193-7. PMID: 15461601

Skin Res Technol . 2004 Jul; 10(3):200-6. PMID: 15225271
Background: High-frequency ultrasound of the skin has recently been introduced for assessment of systemic effects in the cutis and subcutis of oral and inhaled glucocorticoids in children. However, the use...

Schou A, Plomgaard A, Thomsen K, Wolthers O
Acta Paediatr . 2004 Jun; 93(5):623-7. PMID: 15174784
Background: Exogenous glucocorticoids suppress short-term lower leg growth in children as assessed by knemometry. The knemometric measurements, however, may be confounded by reductions in the thickness of the cutis and...

Schou A, Heuck C, Wolthers O
J Pediatr Endocrinol Metab . 2003 Sep; 16(7):973-80. PMID: 14513873
Objective: To assess the thickness of the cutis and subcutis in children with prednisolone-induced knemometric growth suppression. Design: A double blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial with two 7-day treatment periods. Patients:...
