Predictors of Mortality in Patients With Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
SUMMARY Objective Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1 (MEN 1) is an autosomal dominant disease predisposing to hyperplasia and neoplasia in diverse endocrine tissues. Patients typically present with endocrine abnormalities before the age of 30 years and have reduced life expectancy.

siRNA-mediated silencing of bFGF gene inhibits the proliferation, migration, and invasion of human pituitary adenoma cells

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2017
Human pituitary adenoma is one of the most common intracranial tumors with an incidence as high as 16.7%. Recent evidence has hinted a relationship between growth factors of pituitary or hypothalamic origin and proliferation of human pituitary adenoma ...

Short-term outcome of endoscopic versus microscopic pituitary adenoma surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesJournal of Neurology Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2012
Endoscopic transsphenoidal pituitary surgery has become increasingly more popular for the removal of pituitary adenomas. It is also widely recognised that transsphenoidal microscopic removal of pituitary adenomas is a well-established procedure with good

Innovative Approaches to Improve the Success of Pituitary Surgery in Cushing's Disease: A Cost‐Effectiveness Perspective

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Patients require additional treatment when pituitary surgery for Cushing's disease is unsuccessful. Exciting innovations in pituitary surgery bring hope for achieving better outcomes. Quantifying the potential value of these innovations using early health economic modelling can provide guidance throughout their development.

Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B (CDKN1B) gene variants in AIP mutation-negative familial isolated pituitary adenoma kindreds.

open access: yesEndocrine-Related Cancer, 2012
Familial isolated pituitary adenoma (FIPA) occurs in families and is unrelated to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 and Carney complex. Mutations in AIP account only for 15-25% of FIPA families.

Clonal Composition of Human Adrenocortical Neoplasms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The mechanisms of tumorigenesis of adrenocortical neoplasms are still not understood. Tumor formation may be the result of spontaneous transformation of adrenocortical cells by somatic mutations.

The Impact of Metformin on Plasma Prolactin Levels in Antipsychotics‐Treated Men With Hyperprolactinemia and Early‐Onset Androgenic Alopecia

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Metformin decreases elevated levels of pituitary hormones. Little is known about the association between the reproductive axis and hormonal effects of this drug. The purpose of our study was to investigate whether activity of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal axis determines metformin action on prolactin levels in men with prolactin
