Association between premature mortality and hypopituitarism

TL;DR: Age at diagnosis, female sex, and above all, craniopharyngioma were significant independent risk factors and specific endocrine-axis deficiency, with the exception of untreated gonadotropin deficiency, does not seem to have a role.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of hypopituitarism on life expectancy.

TL;DR: The data confirmed that mortality in patients with hypopituitarism is significantly increased, and the contribution of vascular disease to this poor prognosis was not as great as previously reported, and overall the results favor a multifactorial explanation of the poor long term outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Growth Hormone and Pituitary Radiotherapy, But Not Serum Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Concentrations, Predict Excess Mortality in Patients with Acromegaly

TL;DR: It is suggested that reduction of GH levels to less than 2 micro g/liter is beneficial in terms of improving long-term outcome and the sole use of IGF-I as a marker for effective treatment of acromegaly is not justified by this data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mortality and morbidity in Cushing's disease over 50 years in Stoke-on-Trent, UK: audit and meta-analysis of literature.

TL;DR: Overall mortality in CD is double that of the general population, however, patients with CD in remission fare much better than those with persistence of hypercortisolism, and they appear not to have an increased mortality rate.
