Hypercortisolaemia due to ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion by a nasal paraganglioma: a case report and review of the literature

BMC Research Notes, 2013
BackgroundAdrenocorticotropic hormone-producing extraadrenal paragangliomas are extremely rare. We present a case of severe hypercortisolemia due to ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion by a nasal paraganglioma.Case presentationA 70-year-old ...

Adrenal Insufficiency During Treatment With Immune‐Checkpoint Inhibitors: How to Simplify the Diagnostic Pathway?

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective and Background Early identification of adrenal insufficiency (AI) during immune‐checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is crucial to prevent life‐threatening consequences; however, the diagnosis is challenging. Design, Patients and Measurement In this prospective observational study, ICI‐treated cancer patients with morning serum cortisol (SC)

Efficacy and Tolerability of Metyrapone in Mild Autonomous Cortisol Secretion: Real‐World Findings From Clinical Practice

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) is associated with increased cardiometabolic risk factors including hypertension, type 2 diabetes and dyslipidaemia. By using evening doses of metyrapone, a short‐acting 11‐β hydroxylase inhibitor, it has been shown that it is possible to reset the abnormal circadian cortisol rhythm in MACS ...

Glucocorticoids and HPA axis regulation in the stress–obesity connection: A comprehensive overview of biological, physiological and behavioural dimensions

Clinical Obesity, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Chronic stress, characterized by increased long‐term exposure to the glucocorticoid hormone cortisol, is increasingly linked to obesity development. Still, various knowledge gaps persist, including on underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. The aim of the current review is to provide the latest insights on the connection between stress and ...

Effects of pasture consumption and obesity on insulin dysregulation and adiponectin concentrations in UK native‐breed ponies

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Insulin dysregulation (ID) and hypoadiponectinaemia (total [adiponectin] <7.9 μg/mL) are risk factors for laminitis. They are sometimes, but not always, associated with obesity. Objectives To investigate the effects of pasture consumption and obesity on ID and circulating total [adiponectin] in ponies.
