<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Hyperprolactinemia has been implicated in the pathogenesis of obesity and glucose intolerance is reportedly associated with an impaired metabolic profile. The current study aimed at investigating effects 12- 60-month treatment cabergoline (CAB) on syndrome (MetS) patients prolactinomas. <b><i>Patients Methods:</i></b> 61 prolactinomas (13 men, 48 women, 41 microadenoma, 20 macroadenoma), aged 34.4 ± 10.3 years,...
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most frequent complications Cushing's syndrome (CS). The aim this study was to define changes in insulin sensitivity and/or secretion relation glucose tolerance categories newly diagnosed CS patients.Cross-sectional on 140 patients with CS.A total 113 women (80 pituitary disease and 33 adrenal disease, aged 41.7±15.7 years) 27 men (19 eight 38.1±20.01 at diagnosis were divided according into normal (CS/NGT), impaired fasting (CS/prediabetes), diabetes...
Objective Cabergoline (CAB) has been found to be associated with increased risk of cardiac valve regurgitation in Parkinson's disease, whereas several retrospective analyses failed detect a similar relation hyperprolactinemic patients. The current study aimed at investigating disease before and after 24 60 months continuous treatment CAB only patients hyperprolactinemia. Subjects methods Forty (11 men 29 women, aged 38.7±12.5 years) newly diagnosed hyperprolactinemia entered the study....
Mitotane is used as a post-operative adjuvant treatment for patients with adrenocortical carcinoma. Monitoring of plasma mitotane concentrations recommended, but we do not know what impact target have on patient outcome. To answer this question, retrospectively analyzed records in the Lysosafe Online® database (HRA Pharma, France) who were treated ≥6 months and had ≥3 measurements levels during follow-ups at 11 tertiary centers Italy from 2005 to 2017. We identified 110 median 46 (IQR,...

Registry data show that Cushing's syndrome (CS) and adrenal insufficiency (AI) increase mortality rates associated with infectious diseases. Little information is available on susceptibility to milder forms of infections, especially those not requiring hospitalization. This study aimed investigate diseases in patients glucocorticoid disorders through the development a specific tool.We developed administered InfeCtions pAtients endocRinOpathies (ICARO) questionnaire, addressing events over...
