Can we predict hypoadrenocorticism in dogs with resting hypocortisolemia? A predictive model based on clinical, haematological, and biochemical variables.
Front Vet Sci
December 2024
Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary Teaching Hospital, University of Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal.
Background: A resting cortisol concentration (RC) higher than 2.0 μg/dL (55 nmol/L) is commonly used to rule out hypoadrenocorticism (HA). However, there is a significant overlap of RC between dogs with HA and those with other diseases.

Background: Observational studies suggest the risk of primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is increased in autoimmune disorders (AIDs), but it is unclear whether there is a causal relationship. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the bidirectional causality between 20 AIDs and POI using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.
Methods: A bidirectional two-sample MR investigation was designed by using publicly accessible summary-level data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS).
Atypical presentation of Addison's disease with chest pain and dizziness: A case report and literature review.

Summary: An oral contraceptive pill (OCP)-induced increase in total cortisol lead to reversible suppression of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and insulin resistance (IR) in a patient with Addison's disease. We suggest that this might influence the choice of an OCP in such patients. A 20-year-old female was diagnosed with Addison's disease (cortisol: 44 nmol/L, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH): >500 pg/mL) and started on hydrocortisone (HC).

Article Synopsis
- The inhalation-exhalation (I:E) ratio is a key indicator of respiratory health, and this study explores a non-contact method using a depth sensing camera to measure it.
- Healthy volunteers produced a range of I:E ratios, and the data was collected and analyzed in real-time, leading to accurate measurements similar to traditional spirometry.
- This non-contact approach could be a valuable tool for ongoing monitoring of respiratory conditions like COPD and asthma, allowing clinicians to track patient status without requiring physical devices.
