Methotrexate-associated lymphoproliferative disorder with hypopituitarism and central diabetes insipidus

Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports, 2019
Patients treated with immunosuppressive drugs, especially methotrexate (MTX), rarely develop lymphoproliferative disorders (LPDs), known as MTX-related LPD (MTX–LPD). The primary site of MTX–LPD is often extranodal. This is the first reported case of MTX–

Hypopituitarism as the presenting feature of bronchogenic carcinoma with metastases to the pituitary gland

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
Tumours metastasizing to the pituitary gland are uncommon. Symptomatic patients with pituitary metastases can present with diabetes insipidus, headache, visual field defects and/or anterior pituitary hormonal dysfunction.

Effects of pregnancy on neuron electrophysiology in prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and basolateral amygdala of mouse brain

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The electrophysiological change in neurons might contribute to the cognitive and emotional changes during pregnancy. Abstract Background Pregnancy affects learning and memory in women. Thus, to investigate the effects of pregnancy, the authors examined the brain electrophysiology of pregnant mice.

The anterior pituitary and reproduction in bats [PDF]

Reproduction, 1979
This contribution is a review of investigations on the role(s) of the anterior pituitary in chiropteran reproduction. Information on this subject has come mainly from histological studies of cytological changes during the annual cycle and mostly from hibernating temperate-zone species. Although direct evidence is unavailable, it appears that variations

Excitatory and inhibitory effects of prolactin release activated by nerve stimulation in rat anterior pituitary

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2009
Background A series of studies showed the presence of substantial amount of nerve fibers and their close relationship with the anterior pituitary gland cells. Our previous studies have suggested that aside from the classical theory of humoral regulation,

Continuous and Pulsed Experiments with Numerical Simulation to Dissect Pituitary Gland Tumour by Using Liquid Jet [PDF]

Engineering Letters, 2017, 2019
Endoscopic endonasal surgery is a minimal invasive surgery that has been used to dissect pituitary gland tumour via curettes with the help of endoscope. However, this type of surgery has a high risk of failure because curettes may cause damages to blood vessels and optical nerves that lead to more complication for the patient.

Angle-Closure Detection in Anterior Segment OCT based on Multi-Level Deep Network [PDF]

, 2019
Irreversible visual impairment is often caused by primary angle-closure glaucoma, which could be detected via Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography (AS-OCT). In this paper, an automated system based on deep learning is presented for angle-closure detection in AS-OCT images.

Anterior pituitary dysfunction in survivors of traumatic brain injury.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2004
Recent data suggest that anterior pituitary dysfunction after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is common. We sought to confirm the results of earlier studies in a larger cohort of patients with dynamic testing of pituitary function.

Clinical features and endoscopic findings of pituicytoma in the sellar region: A case report and review of the literature

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2019
We report a rare case of pituicytoma occurring in the sellar region resected by endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery (ETSS). We suggest useful indicators for the accurate diagnosis and pitfalls for the surgical procedure.

High risk of hypopituitarism after traumatic brain injury: a prospective investigation of anterior pituitary function in the acute phase and 12 months after trauma.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2006
CONTEXT Recent data have demonstrated that traumatic brain injury (TBI)-mediated hypopituitarism could be more frequent than previously known. However, most previous data were obtained from retrospective studies. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to
