    Psychosom Med 63:985-93. 2001
    ..The objective of this study was to use Cushing's disease as a unique human model to elucidate the cognitive deficits resulting from exposure to chronic stress-level elevations of endogenous cortisol...

    Department of Psychiatry, University of Michigan Medical School, University of Michigan, 1500 E Medical Center Drive, Ann Arbor, MI 48109 0840, United States
    J Affect Disord 101:139-47. 2007
    ..The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that after treatment of Cushing's disease reduces elevated cortisol, improvement in mood and related ideations are associated with increase in caudate volume...
  3. ncbi Improvement in learning associated with increase in hippocampal formation volume
    Monica N Starkman
    Department of Psychiatry (MNS, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-0840, USA
