Higher doses of cabergoline further improve metabolic parameters in patients with prolactinoma regardless of the degree of reduction in prolactin levels. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Currently available studies that fully analyse the metabolic parameters in patients with prolactinoma are scarce and discordant. The aim of this study was to evaluate the metabolic effects of cabergoline (CAB) treatment in patients with newly

CABERGOLINE IN PRACTICAL MAMMOLOGY
Abnormal increase in prolactin hyperprolactinemia is one of the main signs of hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian dysfunction. Consequently, the effect of dopamine on lactophores is attenuated resulting in their persistent hyperplasia and formation of functionally active microand macro-adenomas followed by an even greater prolactin level increase. According

Background Prolactinomas are tumors of the pituitary gland that usually respond very well to treatment with cabergoline. Resistance to cabergoline is very rare, but when it occurs, it is a difficult problem to resolve if the tumor is inoperable.

Managing Cushing's disease: the state of the art. [PDF]
Cushing's disease is a rare chronic disease caused by a pituitary adenoma, which leads to excess secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). The over-production of ACTH leads to hyperstimulation of the adrenal glands and a chronic excess of cortisol,

High variability in baseline urinary free cortisol values in patients with Cushing's disease [PDF]
Objective Twenty-four-hour urinary free cortisol (UFC) sampling is commonly used to evaluate Cushing's syndrome. Because there are few data on UFC variability in patients with active Cushing's disease, we analysed baseline UFC in a large patient ...

Context Cabergoline is first line treatment for most patients with lactotrope pituitary tumors and hyperprolactinemia. Its use at high-dose in Parkinson's disease has largely been abandoned, because of its association with the development of a ...

Introduction: Though hypoadiponectinemia and leptin resistance have been proposed as potential factors for weight gain in patients with hyperprolactinemia (HPL), the effects of HPL and cabergoline on these adipocyte-derived hormones are not clear.

Medical treatment of prolactinomas. [PDF]
Prolactinomas, the most prevalent type of neuroendocrine disease, account for approximately 40% of all pituitary adenomas. The most important clinical problems associated with prolactinomas are hypogonadism, infertility and hyposexuality.
