Gender-related differences in non-functioning pituitary adenomas.
OBJECTIVES Clinically non-functioning pituitary adenomas are common tumors of the pituitary gland. No studies have yet documented gender-related differences in the growth and presentation of these tumors and nothing is known about their effects on their subsequent surgical outcome and prognosis. SETTING AND DESIGN Twenty-eight patients with non-functioning pituitary adenoma, that met strict i...
متن کاملIs Positive Staining of Non-Functioning Pituitary Adenomas for Luteinizing Hormone Associated with a Poor Prognosis?
AIM The aim of this study was to assess the relationships among immunohistochemical staining patterns and prognostic factors in patients with non-functioning pituitary adenoma (NFPA). MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included 103 patients who had undergone pituitary surgery for NFPAs. The prognostic factors evaluated were initial tumor size, cavernous sinus invasion, compression of the optic ch...
متن کاملMedical therapy for clinically non-functioning pituitary adenomas.
Surgery is the first-line treatment of patients with clinically non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFAs). Because of lack of clinical syndrome these tumours are diagnosed with a variable delay, when patients suffer from compression symptoms (hypopituitarism, headache and visual field defects) due to the extension of the tumour outside the pituitary fossa. Surgery is followed by residual tumour...
متن کاملSo-Called Non-Subsective Adjectives
The interpretation of adjective-noun pairs plays a crucial role in tasks such as recognizing textual entailment. Formal semantics often places adjectives into a taxonomy which should dictate adjectives’ entailment behavior when placed in adjective-noun compounds. However, we show experimentally that the behavior of subsective adjectives (e.g. red) versus non-subsective adjectives (e.g. fake) is...
متن کاملExpression of genes FOLR1, BAG1 and LAPTM4B in functioning and non-functioning pituitary adenomas.
INTRODUCTION The mechanism of pathogenesis of adenomas pituitary is still unknown; differences between pituitary cells of different origin are observed. Identification of genes specific to pituitary adenomas should give better understanding of differences in their response to therapy, especially to radiotherapy. The aim of our study was to independently validate differences in the expression of...
