[Dyshormonal strain bone disease in young people].

There were studied 453 young servicemen with dyshormonal strain bone disease in whom the hormonal status, state of carbohydrate and protein metabolism were investigated. It was established that in 92.9% of patients the growth hormone--somatotropic hormone (STH) was significantly decreased, production of thyroid hormones necessary for physiologic osteogenesis (T3 and T4) was impaired and albuminous fraction dissociation was revealed. The authors consider that in dyshormonal strain bone disease in young people the insufficiency of hormonal regulation of growth processes and bone regeneration is the primary factor while the physical strain is the additional secondary factor.
