[Hypophyseal gonadotropin secretion in sexual precocity with McCune-Albright's syndrome].

In three young girls with isosexual precocity and fibrous dysplasia of bones, plasma gonadotropins (LH and FSH) response to releasing hormone (LH-RH) has been much under the mean response in true female precocious puberty. These data and those previously reported in the literature suggest that MacCune-Albright's syndrome correlates to an hypothalamo-pituitary dysfunction rather than to a true prematurity.

Cortisol secretion in Nelson syndrome: Persistence after "total" adrenalectomy for Cushing syndrome.

In two patients who were severely pigmented (Nelson syndrome) following bilateral adrenalectomy for Cushing syndrome, symptoms of hyper-cortisolism developed while they were receiving only physiologic steroid replacement. Cortical assays proved that endogenous cortisol production had not been obliterated. Even after total adrenalectomy, steroid measurement should be performed to guard against adrenocortical excess.

[Functional state of the adrenal cortex in patients with cancer of the rectum].

The level of 17-ketosteroids and 17-ketogenic steroids in the diurnal urine was determined in 70 patients with rectal cancer prior to and after ACTH administration. In most patients the initial excretion of the steroids under study was found to be decreased. 17-ketosteroids excretion is reduced more frequently in patients over 50 years of age and in females. In a predominant number of patients functional reserves of the adrenal cortex are decreased.

[State of the central regulation of glucocorticoid function of the adrenals in brain tumors].

Clinico-biochemical study of patients with tumours of the great hemispheres (75 observations) showed differences in the direction of reaction of the adrenal cortex to some actions. There was found a normal metopyron test, an inadequate activation in intensive stress action (an operation of removal of brain tumour) and a marked prolonged reaction to low stress stimulus (administration of low adrenaline doses). Several tests characterizing the function of negative reverse association mechanism and also reactions to stress actions of various intensity are necessary to assess the state of the central regulation of the glucocorticoid activity.

[Correlation between immunological reactivity and the fat-carbohydrate metabolism. Influence of phenformin].

Based on the conceptions of the relationship between energy and adaptation-immunological systems a number of hormone-metabolic indices were compared with immune reactivity as evidenced by skin tests and rosette-formation reaction. It is shown that lowering of immunological indices in oncological patients is associated with a decreased sensitivity of dexametasone suppression of cortisol, an increased concentration of 11-oxycorticosteroids in blood, a higher level of triglycerides, cholestrol, beta-lipoproteins and less glucose tolerance. The use of phenformin during 3 months in patients with atherosclerosis resulted in a considerable increase of the index of phytohemagglutinin stimulated blasttransformation of lymphocytes and rosette-formation reaction. This effect was associated with normalization of lipid metabolism indices.

[Plasma ACTH, STH and other hormone levels in various groups under chlormethiazole, haloperidol or reserpine load in alchohol delirium, alcoholic hallucinations, and chronic alcoholism].

Studies of 135 men with safely diagnosed alcohol delirium mostly revealed increased ACTH blood values when sober and increased T4 values in about 1/3 of these patients. There is a correlation between the psychiatric clinical picture of the alcohol delirium and the ACTH content of the plasma. Under load with chloromethiazole, halperidole or with reserpine, there is a significant drop in the increased ACTH and T4 values. In an acute alcoholic hallucinosis (n=16) similar endocrinological changes as in most cases of safely diagnosed alcohol delirium were observed. In a chronic alcoholic hallucinosis (n=11) and in chronic alcoholics (n=31) the endocrinological values were similar to those of patients after alcohol delirium.
