Septic shock and sepsis: a comparison of total and free plasma cortisol levelsJ T Ho
Hanson Institute, The University of Adelaide, Adelaide, Australia
J Clin Endocrinol Metab 91:105-14. 2006....
Reduced maternal corticosteroid-binding globulin and cortisol levels in pre-eclampsia and gamete recipient pregnanciesJui T Ho
Hanson Institute, University of Adelaide, and Endocrine and Metabolic Unit of the Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia
Clin Endocrinol (Oxf) 66:869-77. 2007..To measure and contrast maternal cortisol and corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) levels in pregnancies with normal outcomes, pre-eclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and in gamete recipients...
Moderate weight loss reduces renin and aldosterone but does not influence basal or stimulated pituitary-adrenal axis functionJ T Ho
Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia
Horm Metab Res 39:694-9. 2007..There may be a threshold effect of weight loss/energy restriction required to alter HPA axis function, or moderate weight loss may lead to a counterbalanced effect of stimulatory and inhibitory influences on HPA axis function...
Corticosteroid-binding globulin: the clinical significance of altered levels and heritable mutationsLucia Gagliardi
School of Medicine, University of Adelaide, Adelaide, SA 5005, Australia
Mol Cell Endocrinol 316:24-34. 2010..Further studies may clarify the functions of CBG, and clinical observations may validate and/or extend the phenotypic features of various CBG mutations...
Corticosteroid-binding globulin gene polymorphisms: clinical implications and links to idiopathic chronic fatigue disordersD J Torpy
Endocrine and Metabolic Unit, and the Hanson Institute, Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia
Clin Endocrinol (Oxf) 67:161-7. 2007..A mechanism for the effect of CBG mutations on fatigue is not readily apparent because free cortisol levels are normal, although we speculate that CBG may have an effect on cortisol-brain transport...
Value of free cortisol measurement in systemic infectionD J Torpy
Endocrine and Metabolic Unit, Royal Adelaide Hospital, North Terrace, Adelaide SA Australia
Horm Metab Res 39:439-44. 2007..Studies directed at determining if free cortisol is a better guide than total cortisol to the need for hydrocortisone supplementation may be of value...
Characteristics of plasma NOx levels in severe sepsis: high interindividual variability and correlation with illness severity, but lack of correlation with cortisol levelsJ T Ho
Hanson Institute, Endocrine and Metabolic Unit, Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, Australia
Clin Endocrinol (Oxf) 73:413-20. 2010..NOx levels were not suppressed reproducibly by hydrocortisone. High interindividual variability of NOx levels suggests that absolute NOx levels may not be a suitable target for individualized hydrocortisone therapy...
