Abstract

Background: Hypopituitarism is a common but potentially undiagnosed complication in patients who suffer traumatic brain injury (TBI). The identification of risk factors of hypopituitarism after TBI is vital to establish a rational testing approach for these patients. Methods: The authors retrospectively reviewed the case records of patients with TBI, who underwent pituitary function evaluation in our department between January 2014 and December 2016. Results: In all, 193 patients (66.3% male) hospitalized with TBI were included in this study. Anterior hypopituitarism was observed in 33 (17.1%) patients, with 4.7% of the patients having multiple pituitary axes dysfunction. Patients with hypopituitarism had a longer length of ICU stay (8.7 ± 5.5 versus 3.3 ± 4.6,P < 0.001), longer length of total hospital stay (28.7 ± 20.1 versus 21.0 ± 15.8,P = 0.011), and lower Glasgow coma scale (GCS) on admission (9.1 ± 3.5 versus 11.8 ± 3.6,P < 0.001) than those without the condition. Length of ICU stay (P = 0.004, OR = 1.253) and intracranial hypertension (P = 0.027, OR = 3.206) were independent risk factors for posttraumatic hypopituitarism. Conclusions: The prevalence of anterior hypopituitarism was estimated to be 17.1%. Patients with intracranial hypertension and longer length of ICU stay are at risk of hypopituitarism. Routine pituitary function evaluation is indicated for this group of patients.

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.
