Background: Primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) is sometimes misdiagnosed as autoimmune Addison’s disease (AAD), affecting clinical management and genetic counselling. We tested a polygenic risk score (PRS) for AAD (PRS14AAD) as a tool to reevaluate disease etiology and identify patients misdiagnosed with AAD.Methods: We calculated the PRS14AAD in a cohort of patients diagnosed with AAD but lacking 21-hydroxylase autoantibodies...

Background: Recently, we have shown that ambulatory 24-hour dynamic steroid profiling using the newly developed U-RHYTHM system is possible and presented the circadian and ultradian rhythmicity of adrenal hormones in a healthy cohort. With U-RHYTHM, multiple hormones can be sampled simultaneously, and the free active hormones can be measured in local tissue where the effect is exerted. Thus the hormone fingerprint resulting from replacement therapy in individual patients can b...
