CT SAWIN - Annals of Internal Medicine, 1968 - Am Coll Physicians Measurement of plasma cortisol is helpful in the diagnosis of Cushing's disease but not as a
single determination. Stimulation with corticotropin, suppression with dexamethasone, and measurement
in the evening as well as the morning are maneuvers that will help in the diagnosis, but ... Cited by 11 - Related articles - All 2 versions
VH Asfeldt - Acta medica scandinavica, 1972 - interscience.wiley.com Abstract. Circadian rhythm of plasma corticosteroids and the plasma corticosteroid response
during both the 4-hour ACTH test and the 1 mg dexamethasone suppression test (1
mg-DST) have been studied in seven cases of Cushing's syndrome. The early morning ... Cited by 3 - Related articles - All 2 versions
M Thorén, HE Sjöberg, K Hall, H Löw - Acta Med Scand, 1975 - interscience.wiley.com Abstract. A combination test consisting of two parts, a single dose of dexamethasone and a
(1–24) ACTH injection, has been used for the diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome. The test was
performed by administering 1 mg dexamethasone orally at 11 pm on the first day and 25 ... Cited by 8 - Related articles - All 2 versions
… VERSTER, GVDE RODRIQUEZ, AV Schally, CY … - Journal of Clinical …, 1968 - Endocrine Soc The results of a short (24 hr) ACTH-dexamethasone test in over 150 patients are reported and
discussed. Four functions of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal cortical axis are measured. The
test is performed as follows: 2.5 ml plasma is obtained at 8 AM after an overnight fast; 5 U ... Cited by 5 - Related articles - All 2 versions
JR Tucci, PI Jagger, DP Lauler, GW Thorn - JAMA, 1967 - Am Med Assoc The practical application of the overnight dexamethasone suppression test for preliminary screening
for Cushing's syndrome can be extended by the utilization of a steroid-creatinine ratio calculated
from urine collected in a five-hour period, ie, 7:00 AM to 12:00 noon. The use of the urine ... Cited by 17 - Related articles - All 2 versions

JF Seidensticker, RL Folk, RG Wieland, GJ Hamwi - JAMA, 1967 - Am Med Assoc In a rapid screening test for Cushing's syndrome, plasma cortisol was measured by a simple
fluorometric method. We have verified the value of the overnight suppression test as a screening
test for hyperadrenocorticism. An 8 AM plasma cortisol level of less than 10µg/ 100 ml ... Cited by 13 - Related articles - All 2 versions
