The 28 pages that link to Cushing syndrome, each with the reason it gives.

• CorticosteroidRelated: It can result from extended corticosteroid treatment as well as internal hormone excess.

• DexamethasoneRelated: Chronic dexamethasone exposure can produce features of glucocorticoid excess.

• Adrenal cortexRelated: Cortical tumors or excess ACTH can drive the cortisol excess that causes this syndrome.

• Glucocorticoid receptorRelated: Excess receptor activation, often from medication, can produce this characteristic clinical syndrome.

• PrednisoneRelated: Sustained prednisone exposure can produce drug-induced features of glucocorticoid excess.

• Adrenocorticotropic hormoneRelated: ACTH measurements help identify whether excess cortisol production is ACTH-dependent.

• Adrenal glandRelated: Excess adrenal cortisol can produce this characteristic clinical syndrome.

• Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosisRelated: Endogenous cortisol excess can produce skeletal effects resembling those of prescribed glucocorticoids.

• Hypothalamic-pituitary axisRelated: Its causes distinguish pituitary-driven ACTH excess from adrenal or medication-related cortisol excess.

• AdrenalectomyRelated: Adrenal tumors that produce cortisol can make gland removal an option.

• BetamethasoneRelated: Long-term or excessive systemic betamethasone can produce features of glucocorticoid excess.

• PrednisoloneRelated: Extended prednisolone use can produce medication-induced features of this syndrome.
