FIGURE 1 Scattergrams of the peak (60 minute) responses of each individual subject for DHEA (A), androstenedione (A4) (B), and cortisol (F) (C). The subjects are numbered from the one with the highest (no. 1) to the lowest (no. 11) mean DHEA response. Note the high degree of correlation between repeat stimulation results within each individual subject, particularly for DHEA and A4. We can also observe that, with few exceptions, the same trend from highest to lowest observed for DHEA is retained for A4 and to a lesser extent F. Ghadir. Reproducibility of response to ACTH.
