Adrenal crises: perspectives and research directions [PDF]
Adrenal crises (AC) are life-threatening complications of adrenal insufficiency (AI). These events have an estimated incidence of between 5 and 10 ACs/100 patient years (PY) and are responsible for some of the increased morbidity and excess mortality ...
