Peripheral sensory nerve hyperaesthesia in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Dysfunction of the nervous system is well-known in diabetes and also among patients with prediabetes, obesity and hypertension. However, there is only a limited amount of data available on the changes in neuronal function in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOs), despite the fact that this condition is also accompanied by metabolic and vascular abnormalities. The aim of our study was to assess the cardiovascular autonomic and peripheral sensory function in patients with PCOs.

A pajzsmirigybetegségek a lakosság jelentős részét érintik, és a technika fejlődésével egyre több pajzsmirigyeltérés, göb kerül felfedezésre.

[Testicular adrenal rest tumor in the background of congenital adrenal hyperplasia].

The prevalence of testicular adrenal rest tumours varies in different forms of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Patients with 21-hydroxilase deficiency usually have bilateral and palpable testicular nodules. Although adrenal rest tumours are well documented in the literature, the diagnosis and management require a multidisciplinary approach: the cooperative work of endocrinologists, urologists, pathologists and radiologists is essential.

Increased Short-Term Beat-To-Beat Variability of QT Interval in Patients with Acromegaly.

Cardiovascular diseases, including ventricular arrhythmias are responsible for increased mortality in patients with acromegaly. Acromegaly may cause repolarization abnormalities such as QT prolongation and impairment of repolarization reserve enhancing liability to arrhythmia. The aim of this study was to determine the short-term beat-to-beat QT variability in patients with acromegaly.
