Glucose and free fatty acid turnover in Cushing’s syndrome
Abstract
Glucocorticoids are known to have acute effects on glucose and free fatty acid (FFA) metabolism. The effects of the longstanding hypercorticism of Cushing's syndrome were studied by isotopic techniques in a group of Cushingoid patients compared to a control group. In the Cushing's group, glucose production and utilization rates were significantly higher than in control subjects, while FFA turnover also tended to be higher, but not significantly. It is suggested that increased glucose production is the main cause of the hyperglycemia seen in Cushing's syndrome.

Chronic GC excess does not necessarily increase whole-body lipolysis.
“The high GC phase only partially antagonized the insulin‐mediated suppression of lipolysis; thus, cortisol‐induced hyperinsulinaemia may offset this effect, which may explain why chronic GC excess does not necessarily increase whole‐body lipolysis.32, 33”

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.
