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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

Improvement of Health‐Related Quality of Life and Mental Health After Unilateral Adrenalectomy for Primary Aldosteronism

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Primary aldosteronism (PA) has been linked with reduced health‐related quality of life (QoL) and increased prevalence of anxiety and depression. While most studies compared patients with PA to healthy subjects, this study focused on comparison with hypertensive patients without PA to identify PA‐specific effects.

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

open access: yesArterial 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 ...

Screening of Hyperaldosteronism on the Investigation of Secondary Hypertension: Single-centre Experience

open access: yesİstanbul Medical Journal, 2023
Introduction:Primary hyperaldosteronism (PHA), is a clinical syndrome that is defined as inappropriately increased serum aldosterone secretion and low plasma renin levels. PHA has been reported as the most common cause of secondary hypertension.

Apparent Bilateral Aldosterone Suppression During Adrenal Vein Sampling: An Artefact of the Liaison Chemiluminescence Immunoassay and Other Causes Revealed by Comparisons With Another Commercial Immunoassay and Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Subtyping of primary aldosteronism usually requires adrenal vein sampling (AVS). Interpretation can be compromised by apparent bilateral aldosterone suppression (ABAS), which we hypothesised reflects an artefact of the Liaison immunoassay of aldosterone.

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

open access: yes, 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.

Glucocorticoids and HPA axis regulation in the stress–obesity connection: A comprehensive overview of biological, physiological and behavioural dimensions

open access: yesClinical Obesity, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Chronic stress, characterized by increased long‐term exposure to the glucocorticoid hormone cortisol, is increasingly linked to obesity development. Still, various knowledge gaps persist, including on underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. The aim of the current review is to provide the latest insights on the connection between stress and ...

Primary Hyperaldosteronism: When to Suspect It and How to Confirm Its Diagnosis

open access: yesEndocrines, 2022
The definition of primary hyperaldosteronism (PA) has shifted, as progress has been made in understanding the disease. PA can be produced by unilateral or bilateral cortical adrenal hyperproduction of aldosterone, due to hyperplasia, aldosterone ...

Hyperaldosteronism in the Pathophysiology and Management of Cardiovascular‐Kidney‐Metabolic Syndrome

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular‐kidney‐metabolic (CKM) syndrome is defined by the pathologic interconnections between obesity, diabetes, chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. An important and underrecognized pathophysiologic factor underlying CKM syndrome is obesity‐induced aldosterone excess.
