This issue contains 9 printed and 8 e-abstracts of important papers in the field with editorial comments. Thus, we have doubled the content of GGH with the introduction of e-abstracts. This feature also allowed the publication of longer abstracts, data, and comments. Please take advantage of this added feature. I welcome your comments regarding the on-line and print aspects of the journal. Your feedback is important as we continue to grow and strive to serve your needs. The lead article by Drs. Bamgbola and Kaskel on Growth Hormone Therapy in Chronic Kidney Disease is a very comprehensive review of the pathophysiology of the disease as it pertains to growth hormone. It includes provocative ideas about possible future direction for treatment with growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor. I am sure you will enjoy it and save it as a reference source.

The expanded journal and all of its content is carefully prepared by the editorial board and all the lead articles are reviewed to comply with the high scientific standards of a peer review journal. GGH is also in compliance with the code of conduct for medical publishers on the internet (Health on the Net Foundation www.hon.ch).

Respectfully,
