Introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome affects 10% of women and comes with a 2-3fold increased risk of type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and fatty liver disease. Androgen excess, a cardinal feature of PCOS, has been implicated as a major contributor to metabolic risk. Adrenal-derived 11-oxygenated androgens represent an important component of PCOS-related androgen excess and are preferentially activated in adipose tissue. We aimed to identify PCOS sub-types with distinct androge...

Introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 10% of women and is associated with a 2-3fold risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), hypertension, fatty liver and cardiovascular disease. Androgen excess has been implicated as a major contributor to metabolic risk in PCOS. We aimed to identify PCOS sub-types with distinct androgen profiles and compare their cardiometabolic risk.Methods: We cross-sectionally studied 488 tre...

Background: Hypertension affects more than 30% of the adult population worldwide and is a major cardiovascular risk factor. Identifying secondary causes of hypertension is key to offering targeted treatment and mitigating adverse health outcomes. We tested the performance of urine steroid metabolomics (USM), the computational analysis of 24-hour urine steroid metabolome data by machine learning, for diagnosing endocrine hypertension.<str...

Background: Benign adrenal tumours are found in 3-10% of adults and can be non-functioning (NFAT) or associated with adrenal hormone excess. Analysing 1305 prospectively recruited patients with benign adrenal tumours, we recently demonstrated that 45% had mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS), i.e. biochemical cortisol excess without signs of Cushing’s syndrome (CS). MACS increases the prevalence and severity of hypertension and type 2 diabetes (Ann Int Med. 2022 Doi:...
