ABSTRACT Objective Detecting hypotonic urine (specific gravity < 1005 g/L) is crucial for the early identification of arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP‐deficiency), a common complication after pituitary surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the agreement between urine specific gravity measurements taken by patients using urine test strips and those ...

AIP and MEN1 mutations and AIP immunohistochemistry in pituitary adenomas in a tertiary referral center. [PDF]
Background: Pituitary adenomas have a high disease burden due to tumor growth/ invasion and disordered hormonal secretion. Germline mutations in genes such as MEN1 and AIP are associated with early onset of aggressive pituitary adenomas that can be ...

AIP variant causing familial prolactinoma
Pathogenic variants in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein ( AIP ) gene are increasingly recognised as a cause of familial isolated pituitary adenoma. AIP -associated tumours are most commonly growth hormone (GH) producing. In our cohort of

Predictors of dopamine agonist resistance in prolactinoma patients
Background Surgical resection of prolactinomas resistant to dopamine agonists is frequently incomplete due to fibrotic changes of the tumour under pharmacological therapy. In order to identify a subgroup of patients who may benefit from early surgery, we
