Subclinical Cushing’s syndrome in adrenal incidentalomas
Abstract
This article reviews the available evidence on subclinical Cushing's syndrome in patients who have adrenal incidentalomas. The authors' aim is to present up-to-date information on the most relevant issues of subclinical Cushing's syndrome by addressing the many uncertainties and controversies surrounding this ill-defined endocrine condition.

“Despite the absence of florid signs and symptoms, ACS in patients AI has been associated with hypertension (215), insulin resistance (216), type 2 diabetes mellitus (217), obesity (218), metabolic syndrome (219), and increased mortality (75).”
From Adrenal incidentaloma (2020) · cites this paper as [215]
In the citing paper
“Focusing on glucose metabolism, the prevalence of IGT or DM has been higher in patients with SCS than in cases of nonfunctioning adenoma or controls (, , , , , , ), but these data were not confirmed by other studies that found much the same prevalence of these comorbidities in SCS as in the overall series of AI and in the general population (, -).”

In the citing paper
“in our and other authors' experience (1), the presence of signs and/or symptoms of cortisol excess is extremely rare in patients referred for the presence of an AI.”
From Diagnosis and Treatment of Subclinical Hypercortisolism (2011) · cites this paper as [1]
In the citing paper
“SH is estimated to be present in 5-30% of patients with adrenal masses serendipitously found by imaging for unrelated diseases [adrenal incidentalomas (AI)] (1,5).”

In the citing paper
“Similarly, LDDST has been used to diagnose SH (18,40,41,55) without advantages, with the exception of patients affected with alcoholism, psychiatric disorders, and diabetes in whom this test may be more accurate (1,14,66).”
From Diagnosis and Treatment of Subclinical Hypercortisolism (2011) · cites this paper as [1]
In the citing paper
“The determination of ACTH levels after CRH does not seem to add any advantage (1,23,34,35,37,38,46) to screening for SH.”
From Diagnosis and Treatment of Subclinical Hypercortisolism (2011) · cites this paper as [1]
In the citing paper
“The reason to screen for SH with a higher cutoff than that recommended for overt cortisol excess [1.8 g/dl (50 nmol/liter)] (66) is that in patients without signs or symptoms suggestive of hypercortisolism, the a priori possibility of having SH is estimated to be lower than that of a false-positive result (1).”
From Diagnosis and Treatment of Subclinical Hypercortisolism (2011) · cites this paper as [1]
In the citing paper
“Therefore, UFC should not be considered an adequate screening test for SH and should be used in combination with other tests or in specific populations (1,14).”
From Diagnosis and Treatment of Subclinical Hypercortisolism (2011) · cites this paper as [1]
In the citing paper
“Although it may reflect an autonomous ACTH-independent cortisol hypersecretion, available data do not demonstrate that low DHEAS concentration is a reliable index of SH (1,23,35), also considering that DHEAS levels decrease with age (77).”
From Diagnosis and Treatment of Subclinical Hypercortisolism (2011) · cites this paper as [1]
In the citing paper
“The main pitfall of these studies is that the increased uptake of the radiotracer may simply reflect the presence of enlarged adrenal tissue rather than an increased cortisol secretion (1,35,78).”

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.
