“Addition of epinephrine prolonged the duration of analgesia from 103.8 ± 28.2 minutes to 142 ± 54.3 minutes and lowered the median cephalad level of sensory block from T3 to T6.”
“Mean concentrations of serum adrenaline were significantly different when the T0 and T3 surgical times were compared (T0: 738 pg/mL; T3: 27561 pg/mL; p < 0.01).”

“ Adrenaline tests identify fine disturbances in endocrine regulation and considerably raise the predictive value of such indicators as ACTH, insulin, TTH, T3 , T4 and calcitonin.”
“The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that the fall in triiodothyronine may counteract in part the catabolic effects of stress hormones such as adrenaline.”
“ Epinephrine was found to increase urinary I131 (primarily as iodide) after the administration of labeled L-thyroxine, D-thyroxine and L-triiodothyronine as compared to the I131 excretion after injection of these thyronines without epinephrine.”

“A conclusion is made that adrenalin testing can suppress the activity of thyroid conversion of T4 into T3 and decrease the activity of TSH-stimulated deiodination.”
“The excretion of T3 was significantly decreased during 4-h infusion of 2400 ng/kg/min adrenaline in normal rats or during 6-h infusion of the latter dose in the animals preinjected with 2 µg T4.”
