Quality of life in acromegalic patients during long-term somatostatin analog treatment with and without pegvisomant
Sebastian J C M M Neggers,Wouter W. de Herder,Richard A Feelders,Xavier Badia,Susan M. Webb,Aart-Jan van der Lely +5 more
TL;DR: Improvement in quality of life was observed after the addition of 40 mg pegvisomant weekly to monthly SSA therapy in acromegalic patients who had normalized IGF-I on SSA monotherapy, and the findings question the validity of the current approach of medical treatment.

Cysteamine effects on somatostatin, catecholamines, pineal NAT and melatonin in rats
TL;DR: It is suggested that cysteamine may act at an intracellular level, inhibiting NAT degradation, an effect demonstrated in vitro and thought to be related to a thiol:disulfide exchange mechanism.

Oscar Fornas,M.E. Mato,M. Viader,B. Oliver,P. Tresserres,Frederic Bartumeus,D. Tugues,Jordi Petriz,X. Matías-Guiu,Susan M. Webb +9 more
TL;DR: Differentiation between normal and abnormal (neoplastic or hyperplastic) pituitary is possible by flow cytometry, but in the adenomas no correlation with postoperative clinical outcome was observed.
Journal Article

TL;DR: Seven women with prolactin-secreting pituitary microadenomas and three with persistent hyperprolactinemia after surgical adenomectomies were evaluated and none of the patients with previously resected adenomas exhibited hypertrophy of residual pituitsary tissue or tumor recurrence after pregnancy.
