Sleep disturbances and PTSD: a perpetual circle?.

European journal of psychotraumatology

van Liempt S.
PMID: 23050070
Eur J Psychotraumatol. 2012;3. doi: 10.3402/ejpt.v3i0.19142. Epub 2012 Oct 03.

BACKGROUND: Sleep facilitates the consolidation of fear extinction memory. Nightmares and insomnia are hallmark symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), possibly interfering with fear extinction and compromising recovery. A perpetual circle may develop when sleep disturbances increase the risk...

Cushing's syndrome (CS) is a rare disorder, especially in older people. Loss of brain volume and neurocognitive impairment of varying degrees has been demonstrated in patients with CS. However, there is a large difference between the median age of...

Impact of Adiposity and Fat Distribution on the Dynamics of Adrenocorticotropin and Cortisol Rhythms.

Current obesity reports

Roelfsema F, Pereira AM, Veldhuis JD.
PMID: 26626915
Curr Obes Rep. 2014 Dec;3(4):387-95. doi: 10.1007/s13679-014-0118-7.

Obesity impacts many hormonal systems, including pituitary hormones, as well as insulin and leptin. In this review we discuss articles which investigate the influence of obesity on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Different techniques have been used to assess the...

Analysis of the clinical and molecular characteristics of a child with achondroplasia: A case report.

Experimental and therapeutic medicine

Liu J, Tang X, Cheng J, Wang L, Yang X, Wang Y.
PMID: 26136890

Severe and life-threatening side effects can occur in patients receiving allergen-specific immunotherapy (SIT), and recombinant allergens made from cDNA have been used in clinical trials for ten years and appear promising for SIT. The aim of this study is...

Effect of Orexin-A on Cortisol Secretion in H295R Cells via p70S6K/4EBP1 Signaling Pathway.

International journal of endocrinology

Chang X, Zhao Y, Guo L.
PMID: 26064108
Int J Endocrinol. 2015;2015:405157. doi: 10.1155/2015/405157. Epub 2015 May 10.

Orexin-A is a neuropeptide that orchestrates diverse central and peripheral processes. It is now clear that orexin system plays a central role in the regulation of endocrine, paracrine, and neurocrine. It is involved in the regulation of growth hormone,...

H.P. Acthar Gel (repository corticotropin injection) treatment of patients with multiple sclerosis and diabetes.

Therapeutic advances in chronic disease

Kutz C.
PMID: 27433309
Ther Adv Chronic Dis. 2016 Jul;7(4):190-7. doi: 10.1177/2040622316644481. Epub 2016 Jun 10.

BACKGROUND: Treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) relapses can be complex in patients with concomitant diabetes. Corticosteroids and adrenocorticotropic hormones are known to cause alterations in glucose tolerance. Many patients have poor tolerability to therapy, necessitating alternative treatment options. Adrenocorticotropic...

Repository corticotropin injection in a patient presenting with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and optic neuritis: a case report.
