Should Adrenal Venous Sampling Be Performed in PA Patients Without Apparent Adrenal Tumors?

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
IntroductionSome aldosterone-producing micro-adenomas cannot be detected through image inspection. Therefore, adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is often performed, even in primary aldosteronism (PA) patients who have no apparent adrenal tumors (ATs) on ...

C-Arm Computed Tomography-Assisted Adrenal Venous Sampling Improved Right Adrenal Vein Cannulation and Sampling Quality in Primary Aldosteronism [PDF]

Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2018
BackgroundAdrenal venous sampling (AVS) is a gold standard for subtype classification of primary aldosteronism (PA). However, this procedure has a high failure rate because of the anatomical difficulties in accessing the right adrenal vein.

First‐Line Osimertinib in Patients with EGFR‐Mutant Advanced Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer: Outcome and Safety in the Real World: FLOWER Study

The Oncologist, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Lessons Learned Osimertinib has confirmed effectiveness in this real‐world population of patients with EGFR‐mutant advanced non‐small cell lung cancer. Thromboembolic events occur more frequently than previously reported, suggesting a thrombotic diathesis that requires further investigation. Patients with at least three metastatic sites, brain

Adrenal venous sampling as a method of primary hyperaldosteronism assessment

Arterial Hypertension, 2023
We read with great interest the article by Orczyk et. al which discussed an unusual presentation and clinical course of primary hyperaldosteronism, which is frequently caused by Conn’s syndrome. Inspired by their engrossing work, we would like to address

Cortisol patterns are associated with T cell activation in HIV. [PDF]

, 2012
ObjectiveThe level of T cell activation in untreated HIV disease is strongly and independently associated with risk of immunologic and clinical progression. The factors that influence the level of activation, however, are not fully defined.

Does an Analysis of the Pulsatile Secretion Pattern of Adrenocorticotropin and Cortisol Predict the Result of Transsphenoidal Surgery in Cushing’s Disease. [PDF]

, 1993
The endocrinological, surgical, and histological findings of patients with ACTH-dependent Cushing's disease were correlated with the pulsatile secretion pattern of ACTH and cortisol and the outcome after transsphenoidal pituitary surgery.

Intra-adrenal Aldosterone Secretion: Segmental Adrenal Venous Sampling for Localization [PDF]

Radiology, 2016
To use segmental adrenal venous sampling (AVS) (S-AVS) of effluent tributaries (a version of AVS that, in addition to helping identify aldosterone hypersecretion, also enables the evaluation of intra-adrenal hormone distribution) to detect and localize intra-adrenal aldosterone secretion.The institutional review board approved this study, and all ...

European multicentre study on outcome of surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
Some 5861 patients undergoing first‐time surgery for sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism were registered in the Eurocrine® database between 2015 and 2018. The use of intraoperative parathyroid hormone measurement decreased the risk of conversion and persistent hypercalcaemia.

A case of primary aldosteronism with a negative aldosterone-to-renin ratio

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background Primary aldosteronism (PA), as a cause of secondary hypertension, can cause more serious cardiovascular damage than essential hypertension. The aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR) is recommended as the most reliable screening method for PA, but ...
