This early-phase trial is testing whether a single dose of a hormone pill can help diagnose oxytocin deficiency in young people with hypopituitarism. Researchers will give the pill to 20 participants and measure oxytocin-related substances in blood and saliva. The goal is to deve…

This study compares a new diagnostic test using mannitol infusion to the standard hypertonic saline test for diagnosing the cause of polyuria-polydipsia syndrome (excessive urination and thirst). Researchers will enroll 144 adults to see if the mannitol test is as accurate and mo…

This pilot study is testing whether an oxytocin nasal spray can help with anxiety, depression, and social functioning in adults with arginine-vasopressin deficiency, a rare hormone disorder. In the first part, 30 participants will receive single doses of oxytocin or placebo and c…

This study is testing whether taking estrogen pills (estradiol valerate or ethinylestradiol) can safely trigger the release of oxytocin, a hormone important for social bonding and childbirth. Researchers will measure oxytocin levels in 28 healthy volunteers and patients with AVP …

This study looks at whether measuring a substance called copeptin in the blood can help doctors diagnose central diabetes insipidus (CDI) in children after brain surgery. CDI causes extreme thirst and frequent urination due to a hormone imbalance. The study will track copeptin le…

This study tests whether music enhanced with sonic augmentation technology can increase oxytocin (a hormone linked to social bonding) with few side effects. Researchers will compare the modified music to regular music in 22 healthy adults and patients with AVP-deficiency. The goa…
