Adrenal function in asthma.
A dose dependent suppression of daily cortisol excretion was shown in 25 children with asthma being treated with beclomethasone dipropionate. Cortisol metabolites tended to occur below the normal range when doses of beclomethasone of more than 400 micrograms/m2/day were given. Androgen excretion below the normal range was apparent in asthmatic children aged 8-13 years regardless of whether they...
متن کاملAdrenal function in children.
Attention has been drawn to the rarity of reports on Addison's disease in children by Greenberg (1958) and Szczepanska and Sapiecha (1959). The diagnosis can be difficult to make since features such as anorexia, recurrent dehydration and general debility are not specific for the condition (Talbot, Sobel, McArthur and Crawford, 1952). Often the diagnosis is made in retrospect or after the child ...
متن کاملHypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal function.
Basal hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) function is characterised by pulses of corticosterone secretion followed by a transient refractory period when the axis appears to be inhibited. In females pulses of corticosterone secretion occur approximately once per hour with variation in pulse amplitude underlying a diurnal rhythm. Males show smaller pulses of secretion which become widely spaced ...
متن کاملAdrenal function in hypothyroidism.
In ten patients with hypothyroidism the adrenal response to stimulation with tetracosactrin was found to be normal, and to be unchanged after they had been treated with thyroxine. Though the response to insulin hypoglycaemia was less in the hypothyroid phase, it was never outside the normal limits. Hence it seems unlikely that the adrenal response to stress is appreciably lowered in hypothyroid...
متن کاملAdrenal Function During Bed Rest
Plasma 17-OH-CS levels as well as adrenal secretory rates of aldosterone and eortisol were measured in healthy subjeers before and during periods of bed rest. The circadian rhythm of plasma 17-OH-CS was well maintained during bed rest. There was no change in adrenal eortisol secretion rates during bed rest. Aldosterone secretory rate did not change with bed rest; however, following a period out...
