The pleura and the endocrine system
European Journal of Internal Medicine, 2020The functioning of the pleura and the endocrine system are not entirely independent of each other. Some hormones can reach a greater concentration in the pleural exudate than in the blood. However, the clinical significance of this finding remains unknown.

Trauma and the endocrine system
Endocrinología y Nutrición, 2010The endocrine system may be the target of different types of trauma with varied consequences. The present article discusses trauma of the hypothalamic-pituitary axes, adrenal glands, gonads, and pancreas. In addition to changes in circulating hormone levels due to direct injury to these structures, there may be an endocrine response in the context of ...

The Physiology of the Endocrine System
International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1997Understanding the basic physiology of endocrinology and metabolism is important for the safe conduct of anesthesia of patients with endocrine disease. Full endocrine assessment and considered interpretation of the results is essential before anesthesia and surgery.

Metabonomics and the endocrine system
Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2005Proton-NMR-based metabonomics offers a rare opportunity as a definitive screening technique for biofluids and tissue biopsies. The procedure is extraordinary in that it allows the 'complete biochemical picture' to be examined at one time and is able to detect subtle but repeatedly consistent disparities that may be occurring in different, and perhaps ...

Endotoxins and endocrine system
Domestic Animal Endocrinology, 1998There is good evidence for the interaction of neuroendocrine and immune systems. Endotoxin (LPS)-induced mediators (e.g., cytokines, prostaglandins etc) set on endocrine organs (e.g., the hypothalamo-pituitry-adrenal axis; thyroid glands etc). Endotoxin-treated, intestinal ischemic, or irradiated rats show decreased T4 levels of blood.

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1985
The pattern of age-induced changes in each endocrine system is unique. Both hormone levels and target organ responsivity are altered in the aging endocrine-cardiovascular system. Serum levels of vasopressor hormones both increase (norepinephrine) and decrease (renin, aldosterone).

Disorders of the Endocrine System
Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1981The early identification of a number of neonatal endocrine diseases can result in successful therapy. Laboratory diagnosis of thyroid disorders, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, growth hormone deficiency, and diabetes insipidus are discussed.

Endocrine Systems and Behavior
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1987Estradiol, either directly from the ovary of females or as a metabolite of testosterone from the testes of males, seems to be the necessary and probably sufficient endocrine signal for sexual differentiation and adult sexual expression. Progesterone, in females, may play an important priming or facilitative role prior to estrus, especially following ...

Chronobiology in the endocrine system
Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 2007Biological signaling occurs in a complex web with participation and interaction of the central nervous system, the autonomous nervous system, the endocrine glands, peripheral endocrine tissues including the intestinal tract and adipose tissue, and the immune system.

The Endocrine System and the Stomach
1964Publisher Summary This chapter discusses a critical survey of what is known or believed concerning some aspects of the relationship between the endocrine system and the stomach. The subject matter to be considered has a distinct clinical bias because much of the work performed in this field has stemmed directly from the belief that the incidence and ...
