Hypothalamic-pituitary function tests have been carried out in young, obese females with both recently diagnosed and longstanding benign intracranial hypertension. No abnormalities have been found which could be implicated in the pathogenesis of the condition, nor have we been able to demonstrate any convincing evidence of long-term hypothalamic pituitary damage. The results of these investigations can be difficult to interpret and invalid conclusions may be drawn if all factors involved are not carefully considered.
对近期诊断出及患有长期良性颅内高压的年轻肥胖女性进行了下丘脑 - 垂体功能测试。未发现任何可能与该病发病机制相关的异常情况,我们也未能证明有任何令人信服的长期下丘脑垂体损伤证据。如果不仔细考虑所有相关因素,这些调查结果可能难以解释,并且可能会得出无效的结论。
