DOI: 10.1007/s11195-020-09625-4
Abstract: Hypopituitarism means a partial or complete inability to produce pituitary hormones, including those regulating gonadal function. The condition therefore leads to hormone deficiencies that may affect sexuality in various ways. This study aimed to explore… read more here.

Impaired EIF2S3 function associated with a novel phenotype of X-linked hypopituitarism with glucose dysregulation
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "EBioMedicine"
DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2019.03.013
Abstract: Background The heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein eIF2 forms a ternary complex with initiator methionyl-tRNA and recruits it to the 40S ribosomal subunit for start codon selection and thereby initiates protein synthesis. Mutations in EIF2S3, encoding the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.mce.2018.08.006
Abstract: SOX3, a transcription factor of the SRY-related high mobility group box family, has been implicated in the etiology of X-linked hypopituitarism. Here, we report a Chinese pedigree of X-linked hypopituitarism with variable phenotypes. Despite the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/bcr-2021-244805
Abstract: Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is characterised by the development of intrapulmonary arteriovenous blood shunts and vascular dilatation with consequent hypoxaemia, usually in the context of end-stage liver disease (ESLD). The estimated incidence of HPS in ESLD… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/practneurol-2017-001771
Abstract: A young woman presented with primary amenorrhoea, progressive haemiparesis, visual disturbance, dementia and focal motor seizures. Investigations showed hypopituitarism, unilateral cerebral atrophy and inflamed cerebrospinal fluid. A trans-sphenoidal biopsy gave a unifying diagnosis of a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2021/8318747
Abstract: Hypopituitarism refers to insufficient secretion of the pituitary hormones. Patients with acute adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) deficiency may be presented with fatigue, dizziness, orthostatic hypotension, hypoglycemia, nausea, vomiting, or nonspecific abdominal pain. This study described an… read more here.
