The pituitary gland is an endocrine gland located downstream of the hypothalamus at the base of the brain, which is composed of an anterior, an intermediate and a posterior lobe. It secretes ...

SINCE the discovery by Oliver and Schafer of the blood-pressure raising or pressor effect of extracts of the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland ... The glandular anterior lobe, which is ...

(3) After all of the AVP stored in the posterior pituitary gland has been released, a third phase of diabetes insipidus develops if >80-90% of the AVP-secreting neuronal cell bodies in the ...

Disparities persist in access to pituitary adenoma resection at US high-volume facilities, with older age and minority race predicting lower access.

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have shown that gonadotrophs, cells in the pituitary gland with a key role in puberty and reproduction, come from two different populations, with the ...

Alarmed, doctors A. Mandl and F. Windholz examined Adam and diagnosed him with acromegaly, a condition caused by a tumor on the pituitary gland that leads to excessive growth hormone production.

Brain MRI revealed pituitary microadenoma in the posterior pituitary gland (Figure 1). The patient was treated with oral and intravenous potassium chloride, spironolactone, and indomethacin.

However, the lumen of the pouch persists as the pituitary cleft, separating the anterior and intermediate lobes in the mature gland (64) (Figure 3A). Somatotrophs constitute about 30-40% of all ...

biceps load II for superior labral anterior to posterior (SLAP) lesions, and apprehension, relocation and anterior release for anterior instability. Even these tests have been under-studied or are ...

Notch clock activity is suppressed in the posterior PSM by FGF signaling until it crosses a determination front at which its net activity is sufficiently high to effect segmentation. Here, Notch and ...

[3] The size of the diamond-shaped anterior fontanelle has a wide range of normal, from 1 to 4 cm by 1 to 2.5 cm, and usually closes before 2.5 years of life. The triangular-shaped posterior ...

We show the plausibility of reducing scan time by generating cross-sections of SPECT/CT scans from only anterior and posterior projection pairs. Diffusion models are recently introduced deep learning ...
