For our 63rd episode, we returned to the Endocrine Society’s annual meeting and recorded before a live audience at ENDO 2025 in San Francisco. We look at a study from The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism that suggests that we can substantially alter our diagnostic approach to adrenal insufficiency. This study and others have already led to a shift in recommendations from some experts, so we thought it would be of great interest to you all as our listeners. Host Chase Hendrickson, MD, from Vanderbilt University talks with regular contributor Katie Guttenberg, MD, from the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, and guest expert Anand Vaidya, MD, from Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School in Boston.

They discuss “Performance of Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate and Baseline Cortisol in Assessing Adrenal Insufficiency” by Han et al, first published online in JCEM in December 2024.
