Biomarkers of Cellular Senescence in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
In cohorts of lean controls, obese participants without Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and obese T2DM participants, we find that T‐cell expression of senescence biomarkers is altered only in the T2DM participants and not with obesity alone. Moreover, high T‐cell p16 expression in the T2DM participants is associated with impaired bone cortical indices.

ABSTRACT Objective Detecting hypotonic urine (specific gravity < 1005 g/L) is crucial for the early identification of arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP‐deficiency), a common complication after pituitary surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the agreement between urine specific gravity measurements taken by patients using urine test strips and those ...

GH‐secreting pituitary adenomas exhibit spatial heterogeneity in hormone secretion, which may allow for hormone remission even in the presence of postoperative tumor residuals. ABSTRACT Background Growth hormone‐secreting pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (GH‐secreting PitNETs) pose significant health risks due to hormone‐related complications.

Diabetes Secondary to Acromegaly: Physiopathology, Clinical Features and Effects of Treatment
Acromegaly is a rare disease due to chronic GH excess and to the consequent increase in IGF-1 levels. Both GH and IGF-1 play a role in intermediate metabolism affecting glucose homeostasis. Indeed, chronic GH excess impairs insulin sensitivity, increases

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome in Acromegaly Before and After Treatment
Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) prevalence in acromegaly patients is very common compared with general population. It is thought that OSAS in acromegaly patients evolve because of reversible and irreversible anatomical changes ...
