Stability analysis of a hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis model with inclusion of glucocorticoid receptor and memory [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings 1798, 020111, 2017, 2016 This paper analyzes a four-dimensional model of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis that includes the influence of the glucocorticoid receptor in the pituitary. Due to the spatial separation between the hypothalamus, pituitary and adrenal glands, distributed time delays are introduced in the mathematical model.

PSMA PET/CT as a predictive tool for sub-regional importance estimates in the parotid gland [PDF]
, 2023 Xerostomia and radiation-induced salivary gland dysfunction remain a common side effect for head-and-neck radiotherapy patients, and attempts have been made to quantify the heterogeneous dose response within parotid glands. Here several models of parotid gland subregional importance are compared with prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron ...

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020 Papillary thyroid carcinoma is treated with thyroidectomy with or without central lymph node dissection (CLND). The risk of permanent hypoparathyroidism after CLND was calculated. The results that indicated that CLND is an independent risk factor for permanent hypoparathyroidism. CLND is associated with permanent hypoparathyroidism Background Papillary

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020 This study investigated postoperative complications after surgery for medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in Europe. Hypoparathyroidism, recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and bleeding requiring reoperation occurred in 170 (26·2 per cent), 62 (13·7 per cent) and 17 (2·6 per cent) patients respectively.

Synchronous ipsilateral adrenal cortical adenoma and ganglioneuroma: A case report
Indian Journal of Urology, 2023 Synchronous tumors comprising of cortical as well as medullary differentiation are rare in the adrenal gland. Collision tumors comprise of two independent neoplasms arising from the cortex and the medulla without any histological admixture.

Laparoscopic adrenalectomy for a large adrenal cyst
Journal of Clinical Sciences, 2019 Cystic masses/lesions of the adrenal gland are becoming common as a result of improved imaging facilities and techniques. Adrenal pseudocysts are rare neoplasms which occur more frequently in young and middle-aged women.

Microelectrode arrays of diamond-insulated graphitic channels for real time detection of exocytotic events from cultured chromaffin cells and slices of adrenal glands [PDF]
Analytical Chemistry 88, 7493-7499 (2016), 2016 A microstructured graphitic 4x4 multielectrode array was embedded in a single crystal diamond substrate (4x4 {uG-SCD MEA) for real-time monitoring of exocytotic events from cultured chromaffin cells and adrenal slices. The current approach relies on the development of a parallel ion beam lithographic technique, which assures the time effective ...

Neural Annotation Refinement: Development of a New 3D Dataset for Adrenal Gland Analysis [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The human annotations are imperfect, especially when produced by junior practitioners. Multi-expert consensus is usually regarded as golden standard, while this annotation protocol is too expensive to implement in many real-world projects. In this study, we propose a method to refine human annotation, named Neural Annotation Refinement (NeAR).

Chronic steroid use: An overlooked impact on patients with inflammatory bowel disease
JGH Open, Volume 6, Issue 12, Page 910-914, December 2022., 2022 Steroids have long been used in inducing remission of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but there is controversy about whether IBD patients should be on chronic steroids for maintenance therapy. In this retrospective study, we aim to identify the complications of chronic steroid use in patients with IBD.
