0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing's disease (CD) results from uncontrolled hypercortisolism induced by ACTH-secreting corticotroph adenomas; accordingly, patients diagnosed with CD usually present several comorbidities and an increased risk of mortality. 26208471 2016
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing disease (CD) is due to pituitary corticotrope adenomas that produce unrestrained ACTH secretion and have lost the negative feedback exerted by glucocorticoids (GCs). 26695862 2016
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing's disease (CD) is the result of excess secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) by a benign monoclonal pituitary adenoma. 27104844 2017
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing's disease (CD) is caused by a corticotroph adenoma of the pituitary gland that secretes excess adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) causing increased morbidity and mortality. 27894193 2017
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing disease (CD) results from excessive exposure to glucocorticoids caused by an adrenocorticotropic hormone-secreting pituitary tumor. 28614003 2017
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing's disease (CD) is a rare disabling condition caused by Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-secreting adenomas of the pituitary. 28850717 2018
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Cushing disease (CD) due to adrenocorticotropic hormone-secreting pituitary tumors can be a management challenge. 28938462 2017
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing's disease (CD) is a condition characterized by excess glucocorticoid from an ACTH pituitary adenoma. 29716804 2018
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Cushing disease (CD) is a rare entity caused by ACTH-secreting pituitary tumours, leading to prolonged hypercortisolism. 29927501 2018
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing's disease (CD) is a spectrum of clinical manifestations due to adrenocorticotropic hormone-secreting pituitary adenoma. 31491582 2020
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing's disease (CD) is caused by a pituitary tumour that secretes adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) autonomously, leading to excess cortisol secretion from the adrenal glands. 31512305 2019
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing's disease (CD) is a rare endocrine condition caused by a corticotroph pituitary tumor that produces adrenocorticotropic hormone. 31701434 2019
Pituitary-dependent Cushing's disease
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Cushing's disease (CD) is a rare condition caused by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-producing adenomas of the pituitary, which lead to hypercortisolism that is associated with high morbidity and mortality. 31717455 2019
