Cushing's Syndrome
Abstract
Cushing's syndrome is usually caused by the secretion of corticotropin or cortisol by a pituitary or adrenal tumor, respectively, or by ectopic secretion of corticotropin. It is possible to determine the specific abnormality in most patients, but it can sometimes be difficult to decide whether the patient has hypercortisolism and whether it is primary or due to major depressive disorder or to the stress of other diseases. Determining the cause of the hypercortisolism involves performing multiple tests in a logical sequence; the results should all be consistent with the same diagnosis. Treatment should aim to cure the hypercortisolism and to eliminate any tumor that threatens the patient's health, while minimizing the chance of an endocrine deficiency or long-term dependence on medications.

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.
