Relationship between aldosterone and the metabolic syndrome in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome: effect of continuous positive airway pressure treatment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 BACKGROUND: Metabolic syndrome (MS) occurs frequently in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). We hypothesized that aldosterone levels are elevated in OSAHS and associated with the presence of MS.

Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and renin-aldosterone in volume regulation of patients with cirrhosis [PDF]
, 1989 The role of the atrial natriuretic factor and of the main counteracting sodium-retaining principle, the renin-aldosterone system, in acute volume regulation of cirrhosis of the liver has been investigated.

American Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 2023 Background: Greater attainment of ideal cardiovascular health (ICH) and lower serum aldosterone are associated with lower diabetes risk. Higher levels of ICH are associated with lower aldosterone. The mediational role of aldosterone in the association of

Primary Aldosteronism, Aldosterone, and Extracellular Vesicles
Endocrinology, 2021 Abstract Primary aldosteronism (PA) is an endocrine related condition leading to arterial hypertension due to inappropriately high and unregulated aldosterone concentration. Recently, a broad spectrum of PA has been recognized, which brings new challenges associated with early identification of this condition that affect renal epithelial

Endocrine Hypertension, Adrenal Steroids and Development of a Saliva Based Aldosterone Assay as a Potential Screening Method [PDF]
, 2008 Recent evidence has shown the increased incidence of PA in approximately 15% of the hypertensive population, making a non-invasive and simple screening method for the measurement of aldosterone levels necessary.
