Letter to the Editor: “Glucocorticoid Resistance in Premature Adrenarche and PCOS: From Childhood to Adulthood”

The conclusion of Panayiotopoulos et al. that glucocorticoid resistance accounted for 57% to 67% of their premature adrenarche and polycystic ovary syndrome cases cannot be accepted from the data presented. This is because proper validation of their method for determining glucocorticoid sensitivity...

This is because proper validation of their method for determining glucocorticoid sensitivity is not presented. Furthermore, the method seems insensitive to physiologic glucocorticoid concentrations.
