Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate whether chronic hypercortisolemia is specifically toxic to hippocampal cells and causes structural reduction of hippocampal volume in patients with Cushing's syndrome. II. Determine whether reduced hippocampal volume is associated with specific memory dysfunction. III. Examine the relationships of adrenal androgen to hippocampal volume and memory dysfunction. IV. Examine the reversibility of hippocampal structural changes and cognitive dysfunction after cortisol levels are normalized.
