Contradiction?

In copyediting this article last month, I noticed that the following line in the "Investigations" section seems to contradict itself and tagged it as such:

Loss of diurnal variation in cortisol levels (~~loss of diurnal variation is~~ seen only in true Cushing's Syndrome)~~{{contradiction}}~~

If the loss of cortisol-level diurnal variation is seen only in true Cushing's syndrome (as the second part of the sentence states), I don't know why the same finding would be used in a diagnosis of Pseudo-Cushing's; perhaps someone can clarify this statement with a citation.

...but after re-reading the sentence, think I finally understand what was meant; I removed the tag and a few words of text as shown above, to (hopefully) clarify the point. Wi2g 00:39, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
