This study found that hair cortisol did not indicate expected hypercortisolism in acutely underweight anorexia nervosa patients and did not change significantly during short-term weight restoration.
research Steroidogenic response of adrenal tissues after administration of ACTH to dogs with hypercortisolemia
This study found that adrenal sex hormone levels were elevated in neutered dogs with hypercortisolemia, except for testosterone, highlighting the importance of ruling out hypercortisolemia when diagnosing adrenal hyperplasia syndrome.
research “Who and how to screen for endogenous hypercortisolism among young women presenting with clinical hyperandrogenism and/or menstrual abnormalities ”
This review discusses the prevalence and clinical impact of menstrual abnormalities, acne, and hirsutism in young women with Cushing's syndrome and reports no new clinical results.
research Clinical and biochemical changes during high-dose glucocorticoid therapy in patients with pemphigus vulgaris (a comparative study with endogenous hypercortisolism)
In this study, pemphigus vulgaris patients treated with high-dose prednisolone developed symptoms similar to those seen in corticosteroma, such as weight gain and muscle weakness, with increased risks of arterial hypertension and glucose metabolism disorders after 6 months of therapy.
research Endogenous Hypercortisolism in a Patient With Addison’s Disease: An Unusual Case of Adrenal Cortical Adenoma
In this case report, a rare instance of ACTH-independent hypercortisolism in a patient with long-standing Addison's disease led to the discovery of an adrenal cortical adenoma, successfully treated with adrenalectomy, underscoring the importance of considering functional adrenal tumors in such atypical biochemical scenarios.
