Includes bibliographical references. This thesis aimed to address a number of unanswered research questions in Addison's Disease: investigate whether autoimmunity is the predominant cause of Addison's disease in South Africa and if a human leukocyte (HLA) DQ antigen association exists; the extent to which lipids, lipoproteins and biochemical markers of cardiovascular disease are abnormal; the degree to which replacement doses of hydrocortisone are supra-physiological; the impact of glucocorticoid receptor (GCR) polymorphisms on risk factors, markers of cardiovascular disease and replacement doses of hydrocortisone. 2015-01-01T12:46:04Z 2015-01-01T12:46:04Z 2011 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10862 eng application/pdf Department of Medicine Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
