Whilst there appears to be no ergogenic effect from inhaled salbutamol no study has investigated the impact of the acute inhalation of 1600 µg, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) daily upper limit, on endurance running performance. To investigate the ergogenic effect of an acute inhalation of short acting β2-agonists at doses up to 1600 µg on 5 km time trial performance and resultant urine con...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES One microgram short synacthene test is widely recommended as a screening test for evaluation of hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenocortical axis in patients with secondary adrenal insufficiency. Information on adequacy of cortisol response to this dose at different periods of the day in patients with hypothalamic-pituitary disorders is not available. Hence, this study was desig...
