The Value of LC-MS/MS in Apparent Bilateral Aldosterone Suppression in Adrenal Venous Sampling for Primary Aldosteronism.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism
CONTEXT Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is recommended for subtyping primary aldosteronism (PA), however, it is unreliable when apparent bilateral aldosterone suppression (ABAS) occurs, defined as aldosterone/cortisol ratio in the adrenal vein being ...

Essential embryology for the Canadian pathologists’ assistant

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Pathologists' assistants (PAs) are pivotal in healthcare, conducting autopsies and examining tissues under a pathologist's guidance. Embryology knowledge is crucial for PAs to accurately assess anomalies and identify pathologies. Yet, it is often overlooked in academic PA training programs.

Adrenal venous sampling criteria for chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay as a preferable alternative to radioimmunoassay in primary aldosteronism.

Endocrine journal
Plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) was routinely measured using radioimmunoassay (RIA); however, the RIA kit was discontinued in March 2021 in Japan.

Adrenal Venous Sampling for Assessment of Autonomous Cortisol Secretion [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2018
Autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS) can be unilateral or bilateral irrespective of the presence of an adrenal tumor. A reliable method to distinguish between unilateral and bilateral ACS is lacking.Evaluate the use of adrenal venous sampling (AVS) to distinguish between unilateral and bilateral ACS.This was a prospective study of AVS in patients with ...

Maternal overweight and obesity during pregnancy and sex‐dependent dysregulation of the materno‐fetal stress axis

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Maternal obesity and excess gestational weight gain (GWG) are linked to adverse perinatal outcomes, potentially via disruption of the maternal–fetal stress axis. Placental HSD11B2 protects the fetus from excess glucocorticoids and may influence fetal programming during maternal metabolic stress.

An anomalous left adrenal vein draining into both the left renal vein and inferior vena cava: A case report

Radiology Case Reports
A male patient in his forties was diagnosed with primary aldosteronism following blood tests. The patient requested surgical treatment and was transferred to our department for adrenal vein sampling. Preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT)

Adrenal Venous Sampling for Catecholamines: A Normal Value Study [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2010
Pheochromocytomas are rare, but potentially fatal, neoplasms. The diagnosis and localization of pheochromocytoma can be challenging, and recently there has been some debate regarding the role for adrenal venous sampling (AVS). The utility of AVS in this setting is hampered by a lack of normative value data for adrenal vein catecholamine concentrations ...

Corticosteroid Exposure in Chronic Rhinosinusitis and Global Airway Disease: Adrenal and Bone Impact

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate cumulative corticosteroid (CC) burden in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), with or without coexisting asthma (global airway disease, GAD), referred for biologic treatment, and to assess the prevalence of CC‐related comorbidities, including secondary adrenal insufficiency, osteopenia and ...

Adrenal venous sampling with adrenocorticotropic hormone stimulation: A meta‐analysis

International journal of clinical practice, 2021
This meta‐analysis was performed to compare the effect of adrenal venous sampling with adrenocorticotropic hormone with that without adrenocorticotropic hormone in subjects with primary aldosteronism.
