The long-term predictive accuracy of the short synacthen (corticotropin) stimulation test for assessment of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
CONTEXT: The high-dose short Synacthen (corticotropin) test (SST) is widely used to investigate suspected secondary adrenal insufficiency, but concern remains about falsely reassuring results. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to evaluate the long-term safety of the SST. METHOD: We retrospectively evalu...
