Our objective was to determine prevalence of glucocorticoid insufficiency with the 10 \u00b5g cosyntropin test and the level of the HHA-A defect. One hundred and four HIV-infected patients underwent the 10 \u00b5g cosyntropin test. In abnormal and borderline respondents, insulin-induced hypoglycaemia test and human corticotropin releasing hormone test were used to confirm and localize the level of the HHA-A defect. Thirty-two patients with HIV infection and 72 with AIDS were identified. Prevalence of glucocorticoid insufficiency by the 10 \u00b5g cosyntropin test was 21.2%. By clinical categories, the frequency in AIDS and HIV infection patients was 26.4% and 9.4%, respectively. Confirmed glucocorticoid insufficiency by insulin-induced hypoglycaemia test was found in 16 out of 19 cases. Twelve cases had primary glucocorticoid insufficiency, 7 had secondary glucocorticoid insufficiency and 3 were false positive. In conclusion, adrenocortical dysfunction occurs in approximately 20% of the cases with HIV disease. Clinical findings commonly occurring in HIV disease as well as adrenocortical insufficiency are not reliable indicators for performing adrenocortical laboratory assessment. Our results suggest screening all AIDS patients with the 10 \u00b5g cosyntropin test. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/0956462011924434","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2002,10,16]],"date-time":"2002-10-16T09:48:30Z","timestamp":1034761710000},"page":"804-810","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Prevalence of abnormal adrenocortical function in human immunodeficiency virus infection by low-dose cosyntropin test"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Jos\u00e9 Gerardo","family":"Gonz\u00e1lez-Gonz\u00e1lez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Servicio de Endocrinolog\u00eda, Hospital Universitario 'Dr Jos\u00e9 Eleuterio\r Gonz\u00e1lez', Ave Madero y Gonzalitos S\/N Col Mitras Centro, Monterrey NL, M\u00e9xico CP\r 64460"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Natalia Eloisa","family":"de la Garza-Hern\u00e1ndez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Servicio de Endocrinolog\u00eda, Hospital Universitario 'Dr Jos\u00e9 Eleuterio\r Gonz\u00e1lez', Ave Madero y Gonzalitos S\/N Col Mitras Centro, Monterrey NL, M\u00e9xico CP\r 64460"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ricardo Aar\u00f3n","family":"Garza-Mor\u00e1n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Servicio de Endocrinolog\u00eda, Hospital Universitario 'Dr Jos\u00e9 Eleuterio\r Gonz\u00e1lez', Ave Madero y Gonzalitos S\/N Col Mitras Centro, Monterrey NL, M\u00e9xico CP\r 64460"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Irma Matilde","family":"Rivera-Morales","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Servicio de Endocrinolog\u00eda, Hospital Universitario 'Dr Jos\u00e9 Eleuterio\r Gonz\u00e1lez', Ave Madero y Gonzalitos S\/N Col Mitras Centro, Monterrey NL, M\u00e9xico CP\r 64460"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Juan","family":"Montes-Villarreal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Servicio de Endocrinolog\u00eda, Hospital Universitario 'Dr Jos\u00e9 Eleuterio\r Gonz\u00e1lez', Ave Madero y Gonzalitos S\/N Col Mitras Centro, Monterrey NL, M\u00e9xico CP\r 64460"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jorge","family":"Valenzuela-Rend\u00f3n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Servicio de Endocrinolog\u00eda, Hospital Universitario 'Dr Jos\u00e9 Eleuterio\r Gonz\u00e1lez', Ave Madero y Gonzalitos S\/N Col Mitras Centro, Monterrey NL, M\u00e9xico CP\r 64460"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jes\u00fas Zacar\u00edas","family":"Villarreal-P\u00e9rez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Servicio de Endocrinolog\u00eda, Hospital Universitario 'Dr Jos\u00e9 Eleuterio\r Gonz\u00e1lez', Ave Madero y Gonzalitos S\/N Col Mitras Centro, Monterrey NL, M\u00e9xico CP\r 64460"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2001,12,1]]},"container-title":["International Journal of STD & AIDS"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1258\/0956462011924434","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1258\/0956462011924434","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,2]],"date-time":"2025-03-02T11:48:15Z","timestamp":1740916095000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1258\/0956462011924434"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2001,12,1]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"12","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2001,12,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1258\/0956462011924434"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1258\/0956462011924434","relation":{},"ISSN":["0956-4624","1758-1052"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0956-4624"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1758-1052"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2001,12,1]]}}}
