A cortisol response &lt;416, 416\u2013555 and &gt;555 nmol\/l was defined as inadequate, blunted and normal, respectively. &lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt; Baseline cortisol responses to the insulin tolerance test were subnormal in 10 of the 25 patients (6 had blunted responses and 4 had inadequate responses). The mean \u00b1 SD of normal, blunted and inadequate cortisol response at diagnosis was 722.2 \u00b1 127.8, 480.4 \u00b1 37.4 and 317.7 \u00b1 81.7 nmol\/l, respectively. Five of these patients showed improved cortisol response at retesting. Three of the 15 patients who had a normal baseline cortisol response developed blunted cortisol response at re-evaluation. The mean \u00b1 SD of normal and blunted plus inadequate cortisol response at retesting was 668.1 \u00b1 116.1 and 467.3 \u00b1 64 nmol\/l, respectively. All patients with a subnormal cortisol level were asymptomatic. &lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt; Asymptomatic adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency patients should be followed up closely, and treatment should be considered in a stress situation after re-evaluation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000320479","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,11,2]],"date-time":"2010-11-02T07:59:46Z","timestamp":1288684786000},"page":"200-205","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Is Adrenocorticotropic Hormone Deficiency Really Rare in Patients with Idiopathic Growth Hormone Deficiency and Normal Thyroid Function Tests"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"75","author":[{"given":"Senay","family":"Savas Erdeve","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gonul","family":"Ocal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Merih","family":"Berberoglu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zeynep","family":"Siklar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bulent","family":"Hacihamdioglu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,11,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1210%2Fjc.2003-030529"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1210%2Fjc.2004-0364"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0022-3476%2805%2980647-X"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fadc.52.3.197"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fadc.45.239.13"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fadc.44.235.291"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1530%2Feje.1.01911"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF00445612"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF01957687"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1210%2Fjcem-73-1-79"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fbmj.302.6780.824"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.jpeds.2003.12.036"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4008%2Fjcrpe.v1i1.7"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1530%2Feje.1.01829"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1210%2Fjc.2005-0928"}],"container-title":["Hormone Research in Paediatrics"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/320479","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/320479","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T19:51:53Z","timestamp":1745437913000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000320479"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2010,11,2]]},"references-count":15,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,3,1]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2011,3,8]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000320479","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1663-2818","1663-2826"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1663-2818"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1663-2826"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2010,11,2]]}}}
