13th World Congress for Neurorehabilitation 2024

13th WORLD CONGRESS FOR NEUROREHABILITATION

The fecal microbiome contributes to fatigue, altered cognition and abnormal growth hormone secretion in humans and germ-free mice colonized with selected human bacterial communities

Learning Objectives At the end of this session, participants will be able to assess the clinical relevance of pituitary hormones and the link between growth hormone and gut microbiome. Furthermore they will be able to evaluate whom to screen, as well as how to reach the appropriate diagnosis and implement the appropriate treatment of deficiencies. Lastly, they will be able to estimate how replacement of deficient neuroendocrine hormones is expected to alter clinical recovery. CanMEDS roles Scholar,
