DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2020.05.046
Abstract: BACKGROUND The diagnostic threshold for mild autonomous cortisol secretion using low dose, overnight, dexamethasone suppression testing is recognized widely as a serum cortisol ≥1.8 mcg/dL. The degree to which these patients require postoperative glucocorticoid replacement… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0004563219870834
Abstract: Background In the evaluation for hypercortisolism (Cushing’s syndrome), the 1 mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test has an important role, but false-positive results can occur due to low serum dexamethasone. Given the high intraindividual reproducibility of post-dexamethasone… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/00045632231179560
Abstract: BACKGROUND The 1 mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test (ONDST) is recommended for the differential diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome and the investigation of adrenal incidentalomas. Despite documented variation in serum cortisol immunoassay performance, little has been… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/molecules28010248
Abstract: The simultaneous measurement of dexamethasone and cortisol has proven the ability to increase the diagnostic performance of the overnight dexamethasone-suppression test. Furthermore, the therapeutic drug monitoring of administered corticosteroid drugs could represent a crucial tool… read more here.
