  • Title: [Radioimmunological analysis in assessing the function of the hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal system in patients with hypothalamic syndromes].
    Author: Slavnov VN, Markov VV, Rudichenko VM.
    Journal: Med Radiol (Mosk); 1991; 36(11):37-41. PubMed ID: 1943567.
    Abstract:
    Assessment of vasopressin by radioimmunoassay has shown an increase in its blood concentration and a disturbed reaction of the vasopressinergic structures of the hypothalamus to metoclopramide, furosemide, insulin hypoglycemia, and exercise. Functional tests with the dopaminergic drug bromocriptine and antiserotoninergic drug cyproheptadine help to make an individual choice of the most effective drug for therapy of the hypothalamic syndrome of neuroendocrine-metabolic type. The patients can be divided into sensitive to either the first or the second drug of both which is important for adequate pathogenetic therapy.
