Primary hyperaldosteronism presenting as hypokalaemic periodic paralysis
Sri Lanka Journal of Diabetes Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2019 Hypokalaemic periodic paralysis is episodic painless muscle weakness associated with areflexia (1). Hypertension and hypokalaema are the classic presentation of primary hyperaldoteronism though some patients can be normokalaemic (2).

Vascular dysfunction and fibrosis in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats: the aldosterone-mineralocorticoid receptor-Nox1 Axis [PDF]
, 2017 Aims: We questioned whether aldosterone and oxidative stress play a role in vascular damage in severe hypertension and investigated the role of Nox1 in this process.

The prevalence of resistant arterial hypertension and secondary causes in a cohort of hypertensive patients: a single center experience [PDF]
, 2017 The prevalence of resistant hypertension (RHT) still remains unknown. Aim of the study was to investigate in a large cohort of hypertensive patients the prevalence of RHT, and to identify in these patients the secondary forms of arterial hypertension (SH)

Primary Hyperaldosteronism and Renal Medullary Nephrocalcinosis: A Controversial Association
Oman Medical Journal, 2021 Primary hyperaldosteronism (PA) is a common disease with a prevalence of 5–10% in unselected patients with hypertension. Medullary nephrocalcinosis is a radiological diagnosis and refers to diffuse calcification in the renal parenchyma.

A case report of hyponatremia after surgery for Conn's adenoma [PDF]
, 2017 Primary aldosteronism (PA), also known as Conn's syndrome, is a frequent cause of secondary hypertension. If PA is due to a documented unilateral adrenal adenoma, adrenalectomy is the treatment of choice.

’Malignant’ hypertension from hyperaldosteronism: a case report
The Pan African Medical Journal, 2018 Adrenocortical carcinomas (ACC) are rare with an incidence of 0.7-2 per million population per year and account for only 0.05%-2% of all malignant tumors. While majority of the functional ACC present as Cushing syndrome, recurrent hyperaldosteronism from

Pathogenesis of hypertension in a mouse model for human CLCN2 related hyperaldosteronism
Nature Communications, 2019 Human primary aldosteronism (PA) can be caused by mutations in several ion channel genes but mouse models replicating this condition are lacking. We now show that almost all known PA-associated CLCN2 mutations markedly increase ClC-2 chloride currents ...
