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

Syntax
Execute a stored procedure:
[[EXEC[UTE]]{    [@return_status =]        {procedure_name [;number] | @procedure_name_var}[[@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,
