Clinical presentation and magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of lymphocytic hypophysitis: a systematic review with meta-analysis.

Introduction: This meta-analysis was performed to analyze the clinical presentation, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics, and the management of lymphocytic hypophysitis (LYH).

Material And Methods: Four different databases were searched from January 2010 to December 2020, two researchers independently conducted literature screening, data extraction, and quality evaluation. We used a random effects meta-analysis to calculate summary relative risks with 95% CI.

Meta-analysis on the effect of pituitary adenoma resection on pituitary function.

Objective: A meta-analysis was conducted on the effect of pituitary adenoma resection on pituitary function.

Methods: The Cochrane Library, Ovid, PubMed, the Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE), and the Chinese Biomedical Literature Databases (CBM) were searched to find trials about the evaluation of pituitary target glands before and after pituitary adenoma resection. The databases were searched from the earliest available trials until the end of September 2019.
