ABSTRACT Clinical genomics and pharmacogenomics have largely remained separate fields, though some genetic variants have overlapping disease risk and drug implications. However, the extent of this overlap is not well studied. To explore this gap, we cross‐referenced genes from the American College of Medical Genetics Secondary Findings v3.2 list with ...

Sympathetic activity and early mobilization in patients in intensive and intermediate care with severe brain injuries: a preliminary prospective randomized study. [PDF]
Patients who experience severe brain injuries are at risk of secondary brain damage, because of delayed vasospasm and edema. Traditionally, many of these patients are kept on prolonged bed rest in order to maintain adequate cerebral blood flow ...

Pheochromocytoma arising from an ectopic adrenal tissue in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A
A 21-year-old woman was referred to our hospital to treat bilateral pheochromocytomas (PCCs) after a diagnosis of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A (MEN2A). We performed bilateral laparoscopic adrenalectomy.

Abstract Early detection of metastases and timely surgical intervention play a crucial role in the management of neuroendocrine tumors. In large‐sized pheochromocytomas and sympathetic paragangliomas (PPGL), functional imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) is recommended, as it improves the detection of metastases, which may go undetected on ...

Bone Resorption Is Increased in Pheochromocytoma Patients and Normalizes following Adrenalectomy [PDF]
Context: The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) controls bone turnover in rodents, but it is uncertain whether a similar role for the SNS exists in humans. Pheochromocytomas are catecholamine-producing neuroendocrine tumors.

Several studies argued that cardiovascular evaluation of patients with nonfunctioning adrenal incidentaloma is of particular importance. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the possibility of stratifying the cardiometabolic risk using metanephrine levels in ...

Adrenal Insufficiency due to Disseminated Cryptococcus in an Immunocompetent Individual
Primary adrenal insufficiency due to infiltrative fungal infections, such as Cryptococcus neoformans, is rare, particularly in immunocompetent patients. We present a case of an immunocompetent 61‐year‐old man who presented with bilateral adrenal enlargement and adrenal insufficiency, with a 3‐month history of generalised fatigue, weight loss and ...

ABSTRACT Hypertension is a significant comorbidity in the New World, and its prevalence is rising. Around 5%–10% of cases with hypertension have secondary hypertension. Adrenal gland disease is among the common causes of secondary hypertension. We present a 57‐year‐old male with uncontrolled hypertension and a history of intracranial hemorrhage.

A case of familial phaechromocytoma- was it? [PDF]
With advancement in genetic studies, familial phaeochromocytoma (PCC) and paraganglioma (PGL) are increasingly being recognized. Characteristically, correlations exist between genotypes and clinical and biochemical phenotypes.
