Found this study for GH that some may find interesting
Study ran for 12 months
GH @ 5iu EOD, or placebo, was administered for 3 months, then discontinued. Participants rechecked at 12 months.
The GH group saw an improvement in LVEF at 3 months, and that improvement went away when GH was discontinued.

The Effect of 3-Month Growth Hormone Administration and 12-Month Follow-Up Duration among Heart Failure Patients Four Weeks after Myocardial Infarction: A Randomized Double-Blinded Clinical Trial - PMC
The probable impact of growth hormone (GH) as a heart failure (HF) treatment strategy is still less investigated. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the relation of 3-month GH prescription on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), interventricular ...
