Lipid profile in girls with precocious puberty: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Many studies have investigated the impact of precocious puberty on cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes and the association between lipid profile levels and precocious puberty. However, the results have been inconsistent.
