Also with Transact SQL (i.e. MSSQL and Sybase)

Syntax
Execute a stored procedure:
[[EXEC[UTE]]
{
[(at)return_status =]
{procedure_name [;number] | @procedure_name_var
}
[[(at)parameter =] {value | @variable [OUTPUT] | [DEFAULT]]
[,...n]
[WITH RECOMPILE]

However, as Peter E. has pointed out, SQL99 uses the keyword CALL:

15.1 <call statement>
Function
Invoke an SQL-invoked routine.
Format
<call statement> ::= CALL <routine invocation>

FWIW,
