Abstract
Remission of acromegaly is defined by normalization of GH/IGF-1 values according to age and gender. While treatment strategies, biochemical cut-off to reach, and morbidities related to the persistence of the disease are well described in the literature, there is little data focusing on the delay to reach remission and its consequences. In this commentary, the authors discussed the results obtained from the UK acromegaly registry showing that the time to biochemical remission predicts the overall survival of patients in acromegaly.
期刊介绍：
Clinical Endocrinology publishes papers and reviews which focus on the clinical aspects of endocrinology, including the clinical application of molecular endocrinology. It does not publish papers relating directly to diabetes care and clinical management. It features reviews, original papers, commentaries, correspondence and Clinical Questions. Clinical Endocrinology is essential reading not only for those engaged in endocrinological research but also for those involved primarily in clinical practice.
