The problem of osteoarthritis (OA) remains relevant today, it is a chronic disease with primary cartilage damage, subsequent proliferation of bone tissue, leading to joint deformities and impaired function.
The content of STH (ng/ml) in the blood serum of 45 patients with OA and 20 individuals of the control group was studied.
In the examined OA patients, there was a violation of the somatotropic function of the pituitary gland, which was manifested by an increase in the content of STH in the blood serum at the early stages of the disease with a duration of up to 5 years and functional insufficiency of the joints of the I-II degree. In the future, there is a tendency to decrease the level of the hormone in the blood serum, which causes the severity of the process.
Keywords:osteoarthritis, somatotropic hormone, pituitary, blood serum.
