Chronic Central Adrenal Insufficiency in a Patient With Remote Traumatic Brain Injury and an Apparently Adequate Standard‐Dose ACTH Response: A Case Report
Open accessAbstract
In patients with a remote history of traumatic brain injury, central adrenal insufficiency may remain unrecognized for decades. An apparently adequate response to standard‐dose ACTH stimulation should not preclude further evaluation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis when clinical and biochemical findings continue to suggest adrenal insufficiency.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
