2. Long-term outcome after bilateral adrenalectomy in Cushing’s disease with focus on Nelson’s syndrome
ABSTRACT Objective We analyzed the clinical, biochemical, and imaging findings of adrenalectomized patients with Cushing’s disease (CD) in order to compare the characteristics of those who developed Nelson’s syndrome (NS) versus those who did not develop this complication (NNS), aiming to identify possible predictive factors for its occurrence. Subjec

3. Effects of glutamine alone or in combination with zinc and vitamin A on growth, intestinal barrier function, stress and satiety-related hormones in Brazilian shantytown children
OBJECTIVE: To determine the impact of supplemental zinc, vitamin A, and glutamine alone or in combination on growth, intestinal barrier function, stress and satiety-related hormones among Brazilian shantytown children with low median height-for-age z-scores. METHODS: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted in children aged two mo

4. Protein metabolism, feed energy partitioning, behavior patterns and plasma cortisol in Nellore steers with high and low residual feed intake
The objective was to evaluate protein turnover, nitrogen balance, feed energy partitioning, behavior patterns and plasma cortisol in Nellore (B. indicus) cattle with high and low residual feed intake (RFI = actual minus expected dry matter intake). Seventy-two Nellore steers (16 to 21 months-old, 334±19 kg initial body weight) were fed a feedlot diet for 70

5. Determination of free urinary cortisol in cushing's syndrome using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography
Determination of free urinary cortisol is a test of choice in the diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome. In this study, cortisol was quantified using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) in urine samples previously extracted with ether and using triamcinolone acetonide as internal standard (IS). A BDS-Hypersil-C18® column, water-acetoni

6. Profile study of cortisol and testosterone fecal and urine hormonal metabolites in Black-tufted marmoset males (Callithrix penicillata, Geoffroy, 1812) submitted to physical restraint / Estudo dos perfis de metabólitos hormonais urinários e fecais de cortisol e testosterona em machos de sagui-de-tufos-pretos (Callithrix penicillata, Geoffroy, 1812) submetidos à contenção física
A manutenção de animais em zoológicos, criadouros e centros de reprodução tem como objetivo auxiliar os programas de conservação in situ e ex situ, além de contribuir para os programas de educação ambiental. A cada dia, torna-se mais clara a importância do bem-estar dos animais cativos, e a redução do estresse é fundamental neste contexto. A co

7. Screening for Cushing's syndrome in obese patients
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to examine the frequency of Cushing's syndrome (CS) in obese patients devoid of specific clinical symptoms of Cushing's syndrome. METHODS: A total of 150 obese patients (129 female, 21 male; mean age 44.41 ± 13.34 yr; mean BMI 35.76 ± 7.13) were included in the study. As a first screening step, we measured 24-h urinary

8. O impacto neuroendocrinológico do uso prolongado de morfina por vias espinal e oral no tratamento da dor crônica / Neuroendocrine and metabolic effect of the treatment of non-cancer pain patients with morphine used through oral or spinal route
Abstract: The hypothalamic-pituitary function, the quality of life and the pain severity of 57 non-cancer pain patients treated or not with morphine through the oral or spinal route were prospective analyzed. Twenty were females (18 - 60 yr) and 37, males (18 - 45 yr). Nineteen were treated with 60 to 120mg/day of morphine sulfate trough the oral route (oral

9. Papel da via lkaros-FGFR4 na evolução pós-cirúrgica dos pacientes com doença de Cushing / Ikaros-FGFR4 pathway: role in the postoperative outcome of Cushings disease
Introduction: The mechanisms involved in the molecular pathogenesis of corticotroph pituitary tumors are complex, heterogeneous and in most cases remain unknown. Changes in the expression of components of Ikaros (Ik) pathway, such as receptor 4 of fibroblast growth factor (FGFR4), have been detected in pituitary tumors including corticotropinomas. Imbalance

10. Desempenho e eficiÃncia alimentar de vacas leiteiras suplementadas com uma combinaÃÃo homeopÃtica / Performance and feed efficiency of dairy cows supplemented with a combination of homeopathy
The objective was to evaluate the effect of a homeopathic combination on dairy cow performance. Thirty-two Holstein cows, with more than 60 days in lactation, were paired blocked based on milk yield and randomly assigned to one of two treatments for 63 days of a comparison period, following a 14-day standardization period. Variables measured at the end of th

11. Evaluation of environmental enrichment techniques on endocrinal and behavioral parameters of Callithrix penicillata (black tufted-ear marmoset) kept in social stability and isolated / Avaliação da influência das técnicas de enriquecimento ambiental nos parâmetros endócrinos e comportamentais de Callithrix penicillata (sagüi-de-tufos-pretos) mantidos em estabilidade social e isolados
O enriquecimento ambiental ou comportamental melhora a qualidade do cuidado ao animal cativo identificando e fornecendo os estímulos necessários para o seu bem-estar psicológico e fisiológico. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a possível influência das técnicas de enriquecimento ambiental nos parâmetros endócrinos e comportamentais de primatas d

12. Measuring the systemic effects of inhaled beclomethasone: timed morning urine collections compared with 24 hour specimens.
BACKGROUND--Inhaled glucocorticoid therapy has systemic effects including hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) suppression. The optimal test for detecting these effects has not been defined. METHODS--Timed urine collections and 09.00 hour plasma cortisol levels were obtained from 12 normal volunteers receiving inhaled placebo, beclomethasone (BDP) 800 or 200
