Experiments on white mice under the model immobilization stress condition showed that a combined action of mexidole, diazepam, thymogen, and hyperbaric oxygenation (pathogenetic therapy) leads to optimization of the behavioral reactions, which is manifested by a decrease in the level of anxiety, increase in the locomotor and research activity, and normalization of the cortisole level. This effect is explained by a complex pharmacological action of all factors on the immune and endocrine mechanisms of the stress pathogenesis.

Background: Obesity is associated with varying degrees of metabolic dysfunction. In this study, we aimed to discover markers of the severity of metabolic impairment in men with obesity via a multiomics approach.
Methods: Thirty-two morbidly men with obesity who were candidates for Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery were prospectively followed.

Introduction: Conflicting research on cortisol levels and COVID-19 mortality prompted this study to comprehensively assess glucocorticoid status, its links to severity and outcomes, and the role of Acton prolongatum-stimulated cortisol.
Methods: This is a prospective observational study, conducted in 100 RT-PCR-positive COVID-19 patients of mild, moderate, and severe grades from June 2021 to May 2023. Random cortisol, plasma ACTH, and action prolongatum stimulated cortisol were measured, categorized, and analyzed.

Purpose: To analyze levels of salivary steroids, including 17-OH-progesterone (17-OHP), androstenedione, dehydroepiandrosterone, cortisol, cortisone, progesterone, testosterone, and estradiol, in patients with acute central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) patients.
Methods: Acute CSCR patients and healthy individuals were included in this observational case-control study. Levels of salivary steroids were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry detection.

Background: Hyperaldosteronism involves complex, multidisciplinary management, including clinical testing, radiological exams, and adrenal venous sampling (AVS). This study assesses AVS outcomes at a large referral center, focusing on cannulation success, lateralization of aldosterone-producing adenomas, and correlation with radiological and surgical findings.
Methods: A retrospective review of 153 patients who underwent AVS from September 2016 to January 2024 was conducted.

Background: Liver injury manifesting as hepatic enzyme abnormalities, has been occasionally identified to be a feature of primary or secondary Addison's disease, an uncommon endocrine disease characterized by adrenal insufficiency. There have been no more than 30 reported cases of liver injury explicitly attributed to Addison's disease. Liver injury resulting from adrenal insufficiency due to glucocorticoid withdrawal is exceptionally rarer.
