In patients after TBI, APA titer correlated positively with peak GH after GHRH plus GHRP‑6, although the abstract interprets higher titers as lower responses.
In plain wordsAfter TBI, antibody titers correlated positively with GH after GHRH plus GHRP‑6, but the abstract describes the opposite relationship.

Source sentences
Moreover, there was a significant positive correlation (r=0.74, P=0.004) between APA titer ratio and peak GH response to GHRH+GH related peptide (GHRP)-6 test, suggesting that high APA titers were associated with low GH response to GHRH+GHRP-6 test.
1 context sentence(design, population, supporting numbers)
Twenty-nine (25 males and 4 females; age 36.5+/-2.3 years) patients who had completed a 3-year follow-up after TBI were included in the present study.
In this study, GHRP-6 was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking GHRP-6.
