How Common Is Hypercortisolism in Patients With Hypertension? Risk Factors, Epidemiology, and Making a Diagnosis

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endogenous hypercortisolism (EHC) is an underrecognised and clinically significant contributor to hypertension, particularly resistant hypertension. Once viewed as a rare entity, EHC is now understood as a spectrum of cortisol excess associated with adverse cardiometabolic outcomes and target‐organ damage.
