Urinary excretion of monoamine metabolites (noradrenaline-NA, adrenaline-A, 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl glycol-MHPG, homovanillic acid-HVA, 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid-5 HIAA) was studied in four groups of children as follows: Group I consisting of obese children subjected to caloric restriction and
The case is presented of a 48-year old, slightly overweight, brachymorphic male affected by undiagnosed myxedema, admitted for nocturnal dyspnea present for several years but worsened in the last few weeks. At the age of 19, a paranoid schizophrenia diagnosis was indicated leading to repeated
A 52-year-old man with myxedema was evaluated for anterior chest pain that was considered to be compatible with myocardial ischemia. The night after admission he developed extreme bradycardia, hypotension, and apneic episodes lasting up to 25 s. Continuous positive airway pressure and administration
Cutaneous mucinoses are a group of conditions characterized by increased amounts of acid mucin in the dermis. They can be generalized or localized and occur isolated or in the setting of systemic diseases. Obesity-associated lymphedematous mucinosis is a distinct variant of mucinosis occurring in
BACKGROUND
Mucin deposition on the shins is considered as an indicator of pretibial myxoedema, which is typically seen in patients with Graves' disease.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to report the clinical and histopathological features of a group of patients with pretibial mucinosis in
Pretibial mucin deposition on the shins is known as pretibial myxoedema. We report three patients with pretibial mucinosis without thyroid disease. The patients were characterized clinically by morbid obesity and bilateral lower extremity pitting oedema with gradual and painless onset, and that did
(1). Assessment of thyroidal and other indices in 275 instances of obesity with body weight excesses up to 200 percent or more of the ideal revealed absent thyroidal I131 uptake responses to TSH in about one out of five patients. Moreover, basal thyroidal I131 uptake of 10 percent or less,
Important interaction exists between thyroid function, weight control, and obesity. Several mechanisms seem to be involved, and in studies of groups of people the pattern of thyroid function tests depends on the balance of obesity and underlying thyroid disease in the cohort studied. Obese people
Preobese fetuses have elevated thyroid hormone levels and depressed growth hormone levels relative to lean fetuses. Therefore, we are studying various experimental fetal pig models to explore the relationship between endocrine status and onset of obesity. In the present study, intact and
The pertinent literature on the prevalence, clinical manifestations and pathogenic mechanisms of sleep apnoea (SA) in endocrine diseases, namely acromegaly, Cushing syndrome, hypothyroidism and diabetes mellitus was reviewed. An increased prevalence is well documented in patients with active and
Risk factors for the development of carpal tunnel syndrome in women were studied by means of a nested case-control analysis of a prospective cohort study of the health effects of oral contraception in British women. A total of 1,264 women who had a diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome reported by
An acute myocardial infarction was observed in a 62-year-old patient with hemophilia A, as well as myxedema, hypertension, obesity, hypercholesterolemia and angina pectoris. The occurrence of myocardial infarction in hemophiliacs is rare, and, to the best of our knowledge, this patient represents
