==Differentiating X from other Diseases==
==Differentiating X from other Diseases==
*[Disease name] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], [clinical feature 2], and [clinical feature 3], such as [differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].
Growth hormone deficiencyin children must be differentiated from other diseases that cause short stature in children such as:
*[Disease name] must be differentiated from [[differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].
* Achondroplasia
 
* Constitutional Growth Delay
*As [disease name] manifests in a variety of clinical forms, differentiation must be established in accordance with the particular subtype. [Subtype name 1] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], such as [differential dx1] and [differential dx2]. In contrast, [subtype name 2] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 2], such as [differential dx3] and [differential dx4].
* Familial short stature
* Growth Hormone Resistance
* Hyposomatotropism
* Noonan Syndrome
* Panhypopituitarism
* Pediatric Hypothyroidism
* Psychosocial Short Stature
* Short stature accompanying systemic disease
* Short stature from abuse and neglect
* Short stature related to a metabolic abnormality (ie, renal tubular acidosis, poorly controlled diabetes mellitus)
* Short stature related to endocrinopathy (eg, hypothyroidism, Cushing syndrome)
* Silver-Russell Syndrome
* Turner Syndrome

Overview

  • [Disease name] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], [clinical feature 2], and [clinical feature 3], such as [differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].
  • [Disease name] must be differentiated from [[differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].

Differentiating X from other Diseases

Growth hormone deficiencyin children must be differentiated from other diseases that cause short stature in children such as:

  • Achondroplasia
  • Constitutional Growth Delay
  • Familial short stature
  • Growth Hormone Resistance
  • Hyposomatotropism
  • Noonan Syndrome
  • Panhypopituitarism
  • Pediatric Hypothyroidism
  • Psychosocial Short Stature
  • Short stature accompanying systemic disease
  • Short stature from abuse and neglect
  • Short stature related to a metabolic abnormality (ie, renal tubular acidosis, poorly controlled diabetes mellitus)
  • Short stature related to endocrinopathy (eg, hypothyroidism, Cushing syndrome)
  • Silver-Russell Syndrome
  • Turner Syndrome
