Does HGH causes bone maturation?

I want to know if HGH causes bone maturation?
I am asking cause children with idiopathic short stature taking HGH in order to grow taller, of course the results are not so significant as those ones with GHD kids.But they gain several inches and i suppose if they were not taking HGH they couldnt achieve the same height naturally.
I want you to be as scrutiny as you can.
If you can demonstrate any studies that back up your opinion would be great.
Thanks in advance.

Bone maturation? Do you mean fusing of the growth plates? Testosterone does that not HGH.
