Endocrine Alterations in Critically Ill Patients With Stroke During the Early Recovery Period

Abstract

Introduction Endocrine abnormalities in critically ill patients with stroke during the early recovery period have not been well characterized.Methods To investigate this issue, 33 consecutive mechanically ventilated patients (27 men) with hemorrhagic (n = 21) or ischemic (n = 12) stroke having a mean age of 57 +/- 12 years were studied. Glasgow Coma Scale score on admission in the hospital was 8 +/- 3. The following basal hormones were measured within 72 hours postextubation: cortisol, corticotropin (ACTH), free thyroxine, tri-iodothyronine, thyroid-stimulating hormone, testosterone, estradiol, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, growth hormone, and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1. Subsequently, a low-dose (1 microg) ACTH stimulation test was performed.Results Twenty-six (79%) patients showed endocrine alterations. The most common change was low IGF-1 levels compatible with growth hormone deficiency (45%), followed by hypogonadism (39%), thyroid dysfunction (36%), and cortisol hyporesponsiveness (33%).Conclusion Neuroendocrine changes occur with high frequency in critically ill patients with stroke during the early recovery period. It remains to be determined whether these changes have implications for functional and/or clinical outcome.

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.
