Label-free enrichment of adrenal cortical progenitor cells using inertial microfluidics. [PDF]
Passive and label-free isolation of viable target cells based on intrinsic biophysical cellular properties would allow for cost savings in applications where molecular biomarkers are known as well as potentially enable the separation of cells with little-

Glycometabolic Alterations in Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency: Does Replacement Therapy Play a Role? [PDF]
Secondary adrenal insufficiency (SAI) is a potentially life-threatening endocrine disorder due to an impairment of corticotropin (ACTH) secretion from any process affecting the hypothalamus or pituitary gland.

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 ...
