Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of pituitary adenomas: a community‐based, cross‐sectional study in Banbury (Oxfordshire, UK)
TL;DR: The resource allocation for PAs in the health care system is lacking a reliable and an up‐to‐date epidemiological background that would reflect the recent advances in the diagnostic technologies, leading to the earlier recognition of these tumours.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hormonal replacement in hypopituitarism in adults: An endocrine society clinical practice guideline
Maria Fleseriu,Ibrahim A. Hashim,Niki Karavitaki,Niki Karavitaki,Shlomo Melmed,M. Hassan Murad,Roberto Salvatori,Mary H. Samuels +7 more
TL;DR: Using an evidence-based approach, this guideline addresses important clinical issues regarding the evaluation and management of hypopituitarism in adults, including appropriate biochemical assessments, specific therapeutic decisions to decrease the risk of co-morbidities due to hormonal over-replacements or under-replacement, and managing hypopitsuits during pregnancy, pituitary surgery, and other types of surgeries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Craniopharyngiomas in children and adults: systematic analysis of 121 cases with long‐term follow‐up
Niki Karavitaki,C. Brufani,Justin T. Warner,Christopher B T Adams,P. Richards,Olaf Ansorge,Brian Shine,Helen Turner,John A.H. Wass +8 more
TL;DR: This data indicates that conventional excision for Craniopharyngiomas is likely to be more effective than chemotherapy for these benign tumours, which are associated with an unfavourable prognosis and optimal treatment remains controversial.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A new terminology, pituitary neuroendocrine tumor (PitNET), is proposed, which is consistent with that used for other neuro endocrine neoplasms and which recognizes the highly variable impact of these tumors on patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of acromegaly: review of population studies
TL;DR: This review systematically analysed the epidemiological profile of acromegaly based on recently published population studies from various geographical areas to reduce the adverse sequelae of late diagnosis and treatment, improve patient outcomes and, hopefully, reduce the burden on the health care system.
