Objective: To evaluate glycemic control according to the number of daily basal rates (BRs) in type 1 diabetes patients using continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). Subjects and methods: Cross-sectional study treated with an open-loop CSII for at least 6 months a flash glucose monitoring system. Patients were divided into 2 groups: group (G1) (G2), ≤4 >4 BRs/24h, respectively. The groups compared regarding HbA1c, time range (TIR), [...]
Giant prolactinomas are rare pituitary tumours of which management can be a challenge. A 28-year-old man presented with headaches, visual impairment and behavioural changes. Clinically, the patient was found to have hypogonadism bitemporal hemianopsia. MRI demonstrated tumour 76 mm in diameter blood tests revealed serum prolactin 158 700 µU/mL (reference range 58–254). Initially, craniotomy performed. Immunohistochemistry identified prolactinoma high proliferative index started on treatment...
Addison's disease is a rare and potentially life-threatening clinical condition that often presents with an insidious onset of nonspecific symptoms signs, frequently resulting in significant delay diagnosis.

Nos doentes com pubarca precoce, o gold‐standard para diagnóstico diferencial entre precoce idiopática (PPI) e a forma não clássica da hiperplasia congénita suprarrenal (HCSR‐NC) é prova de Synacthen. Esta permite também estimar reserva adrenal cortisol nos HCSR‐NC. Comparar as características clínicas perfil hormonal basal dos precoce; avaliar importância Synacthen no PPI HCSR‐NC na determinação cortisol.
