Background: Glucocorticoids (GC) are potent entrainers of the circadian clock, however their effect on biological rhythms in human chronic exposure have been poorly studied. Endogenous hypercortisolism (Cushing’s Syndrome, CS) is a rare condition, in which circadian disruption is sustained by a tumorous source of GC excess, offering the unique opportunity to investigate the in vivo chronic effects of GC.Methods: In a 12-month prospective mu...
