Abstract Background Impulse control disorders (ICDs), including hypersexuality, are associated with adverse effects of dopamine agonists, such as pramipexole, particularly in the treatment of Parkinson's disease and restless legs syndrome (RLS). The underlying mechanisms remain unclear in ICDs in patients with RLS, and no neuroimaging studies have ...

Prolactin-secreting adenomas (prolactinomas) are the most common secreting adenomas of the pituitary. Microprolactinomas (diameter <10 mm) are frequently diagnosed in women, whereas macroprolactinomas (maximum diameter ≥10 mm) are generally seen in men. Most macroprolactinomas measure between 10 and 40 mm.

Beyond fluorodeoxyglucose: Molecular imaging of cancer in precision medicine
Abstract Cancer molecular imaging is the noninvasive visualization of a process unique to or altered in neoplasia, such as proliferation, glucose metabolism, and receptor expression, which is relevant to patient management. Several molecular imaging modalities are now available, including magnetic resonance, optical, and nuclear imaging.

ABSTRACT Due to its rare incidence, pituitary adenoma requires high vigilance and suspicion. Therefore, physicians should consider this differential diagnosis and perform the necessary workup, such as an overnight or standard dexamethasone suppression test and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), to rule it out if sudden hormonal changes without any

Elevated Risk of Thyroid Malignancy in Biological Males Taking Estrogen Hormone Therapy
Abstract Objective The role of estrogen in developing thyroid malignancy is poorly understood. Epidemiological studies have shown exogenous estrogen is associated with increased risk in females. Still, no studies to date have investigated this association among biological males undergoing estrogen hormone therapy.

ABSTRACT Background Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the commonest gyneco‐endocrine disorders amongst women of reproductive age. Whether PCOS and cardiometabolic traits in PCOS patients are associated with shortened telomere length (TL) or relative leukocyte telomere length (rLTL) remains unclear.

EGFR and JAK2 were significant master gene biomarkers in invasive and noninvasive pituitary adenoma
(A) Visualization of the interactions between upregulated and downregulated genes in invasive and non‐invasive pituitary adenomas, highlighting the central role of EGFR and JAK2 as master gene biomarkers. (B) Expression density plots show the distribution of gene expression values after normalization, and volcano plots illustrate significant DEGs ...

Premature pubarche as a first presentation of pituitary macroprolactinoma
Prolactinoma is a rare tumor of childhood. Clinical presentations of prolactinoma include amenorrhea, delayed puberty, and galactorrhea. For the first time, in this case, elevated prolactin levels were associated with unexpected premature pubarche.
