Example text
For example, if significant people around the patient respond to the patient’s changed behavior in healthy, helpful, affirming ways, they may be able to help the patient reframe a situation and regain hope in ways the patient might be unable to accomplish alone. In these ways, the psychosocial aspects are critical determinants of the kinds of adjustments that patients and their loved ones may be required to make. One almost universal psychosocial aspect of illness is loneliness, a painful affective state in which one feels empty, isolated, and sad.
Particularly in iatrogenic hypopituitarism, both hypothalamus and pituitary are affected, and no effort is made to determine the site(s) of dysfunction. 1 summarizes causes of secondary adrenal insufficiency. By far the most common cause of secondary adrenal insufficiency is abrupt cessation of long-term glucocorticoid replacement. Therapy with glucocorticoids above the physiologic daily production rate leads to suppression of the central drive of the HPA axis, mirrored in reduced hypothalamic release of corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH), atrophy of ACTH-producing cells in the pituitary, and resultant involution of the adrenal zona fasciculata and zona reticularis.
