Integration of clinical parameters and CT-based radiomics improves machine learning assisted subtyping of primary hyperaldosteronism

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to investigate an integrated diagnostics approach for prediction of the source of aldosterone overproduction in primary hyperaldosteronism (PA).Methods269 patients from the prospective German Conn Registry with PA were

Hypokalemic rhabdomyolysis: a rare manifestation of primary aldosteronism [PDF]

, 2015
Rhabdomyolysis is a rare presentation of hypokalemia, although muscle weakness is a well-known manifestation of hypokalemia. Primary aldosteronism is characterized by hypertension, suppressed plasma renin activity, increased aldosterone excretion and ...

Inhibition of Galectin-3 Pathway Prevents Isoproterenol-Induced Left Ventricular Dysfunction and Fibrosis in Mice [PDF]

, 2016
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is involved in inflammation, fibrogenesis, and cardiac remodeling. Previous evidence shows that Gal-3 interacts with aldosterone in promoting macrophage infiltration and vascular fibrosis and that Gal-3 genetic and ...

Diabetic kidney disease, biomarkers, and finerenone

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Diabetic kidney disease (DKD), the leading cause of kidney failure worldwide, is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). A complex pathobiology involving hemodynamic, metabolic, and immune dysregulation promotes inflammatory and fibrotic pathways that contribute to kidney disease progression and CVD in individuals ...

Quantitative value of aldosterone-renin ratio for detection of aldosterone-producing adenoma: The Aldosterone-Renin Ratio for Primary Aldosteronism (AQUARR) study [PDF]

, 2017
Background Current guidelines recommend use of the aldosterone\u2010renin ratio (ARR) for the case detection of primary aldosteronism followed by confirmatory tests to exclude false\u2010positive results from further diagnostic workup.

Ouabain‐induced hypertension in rats: Mechanisms, variability and translational implications

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ouabain‐induced hypertension is a multifactorial and condition‐dependent phenomenon involving coordinated actions across vascular, renal and central nervous system pathways. At the vascular level, ouabain inhibits Na⁺/K⁺‐ATPase, particularly the α2‐isoform, leading to elevated intracellular Ca2⁺, enhanced vasoconstriction and structural ...

Rhabdomyolysis as first presentation of the Conn’s syndrome: a clinical case

Arterial Hypertension
Primary hyperaldosteronism is the leading cause of secondary hypertension, often presented with hypokalemia and even rare with its consequences. We describe a case of a 62-year-old man admitted to the emergency department with rhabdomyolysis from severe ...
