Cushing’s disease and bone Abstract Bone impairment associated with Cushing’s disease (CD) is a complex disorder, mainly involving deterioration of bone quality and resulting in an increased fracture rate, often despite normal bone mineral density. Bone complications are common in patients with CD at the time of diagnosis but may persist even after successful treatment. There is currently no agreement on the optimal diagnostic methods, thresholds for anti-osteoporotic therapy and its timing in CD. In this review, we summarize the current data on the pathophysiology, diagnostic ...

Glucocorticoid Regulation of Food-Choice Behaviorin Humans: Evidence from Cushing’s Syndrome The mechanisms by which glucocorticoids regulate food intake and resulting body mass in human sare not well-understood. One potential mechanism could involve modulation of reward processing, but human stress models  examining effects of glucocorticoids on behavior contain important confounds. Here, we studied individuals with Cushing’s syndrome, a rare endocrine disorder characterized by chronic excess endogenous glucocorticoids. Twenty-three patients with Cushing’s syndrome (13 with active ...

Very Low-Calorie Ketogenic Diet: A Potential Application in the Treatment of Hypercortisolism Comorbidities Abstract: A very low-calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) is characterized by low daily caloric intake (less than 800 kcal/day), low carbohydrate intake (<50 g/day) and normoproteic (1–1.5 g of protein/kg of ideal body weight) contents. It induces a significant weight loss and an improvement in lipid parameters, blood pressure, glycaemic indices and insulin sensitivity in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Cushing’s syndrome (CS) is characterized by an endogenous or ...

A prospective study of appetite and food craving in 30 patients with Cushing’s disease Abstract Context—Glucocorticoid (GC) exposure increases food intake, but the mechanisms in humans are not known. Investigation of appetite and food craving has not been done in patients with chronic GC exposure due to Cushing’s disease (CD), either before or after treatment, and could provide insight into mechanisms of food intake and obesity in these patients. Purpose—To examine whether surgical remission of CD changes appetite (prospective consumption, hunger, satisfaction, and fullness) and ...

Nutritional Intervention in Cushing’s Disease: The Ketogenic Diet’s Effects on Metabolic Comorbidities and Adrenal Steroids Abstract: Background: a very low-calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) is associated with improvement of metabolic and cardiovascular disorders. We aimed to evaluate the effects of a VLCKD in patients with Cushing’s disease (CD) as adjunctive therapy to treatment for the primary disease. Methods: we evaluated clinical, hormonal and metabolic parameters in 15 patients with CD and 15 controls at baseline after 1 week and 3 weeks of VLCKD and, further, after 2 weeks of ...

Hiperparatireoidismo secundário devido à doença renal crônica e acesso ao tratamento clínico e à paratireoidectomia no Brasil: uma pesquisa nacional Resumo Introdução: A doença renal crônica (DRC) pode levar ao hiperparatireoidismo secundário (HPTS) e seu tratamento baseia-se no controle da hiperfosfatemia, hipocalcemia e níveis séricos de paratormônio (PTH). Apesar dos avanços no tratamento do HPTS, a falha terapêutica é frequente, e pacientes com DRC em diálise demandam paratireoidectomia (PTx). Objetivo: Atualizar a pesquisa de 2011, estimar a prevalência atual de ...
