DOI: 10.1097/shk.0000000000002124
Abstract: ABSTRACT Background: Previous trials evaluated the incidence of critical illness–related corticosteroid insufficiency (CIRCI) using 250 μg adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). However, this supraphysiological dose could result in false-positive levels. We aimed to determine the incidence of… read more here.

Abstract: Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-dependent Cushing’s syndrome is characterized by hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis dysfunction. As the neuroendocrinological axis has been shown to react under the regulation of the central nerve system through the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) releasing from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jvim.14708
Abstract: Background Standard protocols for adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulation testing (ACTHst) often involve intravenous (IV) injection of corticotropin. ACTH might be unintentionally injected into the perivascular (PV) space. Objective To compare stimulation test results after IV… read more here.
