  • Title: Overnight urinary 11-hydroxycorticosteroid estimations in diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome.
    Author: Mattingly D, Tyler C.
    Journal: Br Med J; 1976 Sep 18; 2(6037):668-9. PubMed ID: 974528.
    Abstract:
    Overnight specimens of urine were collected from control, obese, and hirsute women and from 11 women with Cushing's syndrome. Urinary 11-hydroxycorticosteroid levels in the group with Cushing's syndrome were significantly higher than in the other three groups. This simple test has proved invaluable when screening for Cushing's syndrome in a busy outpatient clinic.
