Evaluation of Neuroendocrine Dysfunction Following Acute Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2023 Background and Aim: In the management of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), endocrine dysfunction is infrequently considered. Pituitary (neuroendocrine) dysfunction is highly prevalent after aSAH, leading to residual symptoms such as decreased ...

The Influence of Anandamide on the Anterior Pituitary Hormone Secretion in Ewes—Ex Vivo Study
Animals, 2020 Cannabinoids (CBs) are involved in the neuroendocrine control of reproductive processes by affecting GnRH and gonadotropins secretion. The presence of cannabinoid receptors (CBR) in the pituitary raises a presumption that anandamide (AEA), the endogenous

Testicular “Hyperstimulation” Syndrome: A Case of Functional Gonadotropinoma
Case Reports in Endocrinology, 2014 Gonadotropins secreting pituitary tumors tend to present as sellar mass with hypogonadism. Biologically active LH secretion by these tumors resulting in elevated testosterone is extremely rare. We report a case of a 48-year-old male patient who presented
