abstract：:1. We set out to investigate whether the administration of naloxone alone, naloxone plus vasopressin (AVP) or naloxone plus alprazolam to patients with Cushing's syndrome would result in a blunted dynamic response of the pituitary-adrenal axis compared with normal volunteers. Cushing's syndrome is often difficult to d...
