Clinical, biochemical and genetic approaches to the detection of familial hyperaldosteronism type I
Aim: Since detection of familial hyperaldosteronism type I (glucocorticoid-suppressible hyperaldosteronism) allows specific treatment of hypertension with dexamethasone, we compared clinical, biochemical and genetic approaches to ...
