May 18th, 2020 - Appropriate management of adrenal insufficiency (AI) in pregnancy can be challenging due to the rarity of the disease and lack of evidence-based recommendations to guide glucocorticoid- and mineralocorticoid dosage adjustment. Multi-center survey ...

Apr 17th, 2020 - The natural history of adrenal function in autoimmune Addison disease once diagnosed and treated has not been systematically studied, but several case reports of recovery from established adrenal failure suggest it may not be uniform. To ascertain...

Mar 23rd, 2020 - Addison disease, corticosteroid withdrawal, and taking synthetic growth hormone have been linked with development of intracranial hypertension, but there is still debate on whether administration of other exogenous hormones plays a role in precipi...

Mar 11th, 2020 - Practice Essentials Do not confuse acute adrenal crisis with Addison disease. In 1855, Thomas Addison described a syndrome of long-term adrenal insufficiency that develops over months to years, with weakness, fatigue, anorexia, weight loss, and hy...

Cutaneous pigmentation is a hallmark of Addison disease. When present, the hyperpigmentation generally localizes to sun-exposed surfaces.

Abstract and Introduction Abstract Objective—We sought to define the prevalence of nonislet, organ-specific autoantibodies at diagnosis of type 1 diabetes and to determine the prevalence of comorbid autoimmune diseases. Research design and methods...
