title: [Studies on stress-conditioned secretion of somatotropin].
abstract: 72 of 413 adults and 55 of 112 children with intact function of the hypophysis revealed secretions of the growth hormone already in the preparation time for a clinical test. These variations of the HGH basal levels must be regarded as conditioned on test. In the judgment of the function of the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland with the help of the dynamics of the HGH-secretion the changes in the pretest-period should be included in order to avoid false diagnoses. From the secretion of the growth hormone conditioned on stress hitherto no conclusions can be made to the following course of the HGH-secretion.
