A team of investigators measured concentrations of 5 corticosteroid hormones in the keratin matrix of patients with adrenal incidentalomas with or without cortisol autonomy.
A team of investigators assessed the ability of computed tomographic-derived, 3-dimensional volumetry to predict autonomous cortisol secretion among patients with adrenal adenomas.
The complexity of Cushing syndrome often makes diagnosis difficult. Researchers sought to create a diagnostic tool that could determine which patients may be at risk for developing the disease.
Adrenal masses and people who may have Cushing syndrome are often evaluated with a dexamethasone suppression test (DST), but false positives occur. Researchers examined whether free cortisol assessment during DST would aid in diagnosis.
Anxiety and depression in people with hyperparathyroidism may be related to levels of 2 key hormones in the body, according to researchers.
High-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography can be used to assess bone abnormalities in patients with adrenal incidentaloma.
Mifepristone may be an effective alternative to adrenalectomy in patients with hypercortisolism caused by primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia.
Hypertension may be associated with degree of glucocorticoid suppression and peripheral activation in postmenopausal women.
Prevalence of diabetes is higher in patients with primary aldosteronism and was found to be related to suspected subclinical hypercortisolism.
