Bartter Syndrome With Normal Aldosterone Level and Acute Pancreatitis: An Unusual Presentation
ABSTRACT Bartter syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive renal tubulopathy, which classically presents with hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis, hyperreninemia, and hyperaldosteronism. We report an atypical presentation in a 16‐year‐old male who was diagnosed following an initial manifestation of acute pancreatitis.

ABSTRACT Aim The kidney thick ascending limb (TAL) plays a key role in the transport of sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Bartter syndrome is a hypokalemic, salt‐losing tubulopathy caused by impaired TAL function. Pathogenic variants in SLC12A1 or KCNJ1 cause antenatal Bartter syndrome, and variants in CLCNKB result in classical ...

Urine electrolytes guide treatment of Gitelman syndrome and recurrent syncope—A case report
Abstract Syncope is a common reason for inpatient admission. Few case studies describe an association between syncope and Gitelman syndrome (GS). Herein, we present a case of a woman with hypokalemia and recurrent syncope which eventually led to a diagnosis of GS. A physiologic approach to urine electrolyte interpretation informed clinical decisions to
