Suspected primary hyperreninism in a cat with malignant renal sarcoma and global renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system upregulation

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2022
A 14‐year‐old male castrated domestic medium‐hair cat with diabetes mellitus was evaluated for vomiting, diarrhea, and anorexia. Two weeks before presentation, the cat had been diagnosed with congestive heart failure and started on furosemide.

Adrenal Vein Sampling: Radiation Dose Reduction on New Angiography Platform

The Arab Journal of Interventional Radiology, 2020
Objectives: Primary aldosteronism is one of the most common causes of secondary hypertension. Distinguishing unilateral from bilateral disease is essential as those with unilateral adrenal disease will benefit from adrenalectomy. This is best achieved by

Surgery based on computed tomography images might be feasible for primary aldosteronism patients with visible unilateral adenoma

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2023
Primary aldosteronism (PA) with unilateral adrenal disease can be cured or improved by adrenalectomy. Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is recommended to identify patients for surgical management.

Primary Aldosteronism More Prevalent in Patients With Cardioembolic Stroke and Atrial Fibrillation

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
BackgroundPrimary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common cause of secondary hypertension, and patients are at an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) and stroke. We assessed the prevalence of PA in patients with recent stroke.MethodsWe recruited 300

Adrenal Venous Sampling for Subtype Diagnosis of Primary Hyperaldosteronism [PDF]

Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2021
Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is the key procedure for lateralization of primary hyperaldosteronism (PA) before surgery. Identification of the adrenal veins using computed tomography (CT) and intraoperative cortisol assay facilitates the success of ...

Acid-sensing ion channel 1a deficiency drives endocrine hypertension in male mice. [PDF]

J Physiol
Abstract figure legend Acid‐sensing ion channel 1a deficiency drives endocrine hypertension in aged male mice. Global deletion of ASIC1a (Asic1a−/−) in adult male mice (6 months old) elevates corticosterone, leading to hypokalaemia, volume expansion, increased pulse pressure and cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.

Coexistence of Primary Hyperaldosteronism and Graves’ Disease, a Rare Combination of Endocrine Disorders: Is It beyond a Coincidence—A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Case Reports in Endocrinology, 2017
Background. Primary hyperaldosteronism is a known cause for secondary hypertension. In addition to its effect on blood pressure, aldosterone exhibits proinflammatory actions and plays a role in immunomodulation/development of autoimmunity.
