📰 Adrenocorticotropin-Dependent Ectopic Cushing's Syndrome: A Case Report
The diagnosis of Cushing's Syndrome is a three-step process that includes its suspicion based on the patient's laboratory and semiologic findings, the documentation of hypercortisolism, and the identification of its cause, which can be either ACTH-dependent or independent.

📰 Interpetrosal Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Ratio Predicting Cushing’s Disease Tumor Laterality and Remission After Surgery
Cushing’s disease (CD) poses significant challenges in its treatment due to the lack of reliable biomarkers for predicting tumor localization or postoperative clinical outcomes. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) has been shown to increase cortisol biosynthesis and is regulated by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH).
🎂Happy birthday Dr. Friedman!
