A study of the effects of exercise on the urinary metabolome using normalisation to individual metabolic output [PDF]
Aerobic exercise, in spite of its multi-organ benefit and potent effect on the metabolome, has yet to be investigated comprehensively via an untargeted metabolomics technology.

Labile hypertension, increased metanephrines and imaging misadventures [PDF]
This 58-year-old female with a 5-year history of hyper-tension was referred to our institution for furtherevaluation of a possible pheochromocytoma. Onemonth prior to her visit, she experienced the onset ofepisodic blood pressure elevations associated withheadaches, dizziness, sweating and palpitations.

Post-exercise cold-water immersion modulates skeletal muscle PGC-1α mRNA expression in immersed and non-immersed limbs: evidence of systemic regulation [PDF]
Mechanisms mediating post-exercise cold-induced increases in PGC-1α gene expression in human skeletal muscle are yet to be fully elucidated, but may involve local cooling effects on AMPK and p38 MAPK related signalling and/or increased systemic β ...

Urinary Normetanephrine for the Diagnosis of Canine Pheochromocytoma via Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry. [PDF]
Pheochromocytomas (PHEO) are rare adrenal medullary tumours characterised by catecholamine secretion. Accurate diagnosis relies on the sensitive measurement of metanephrine (MN) and normetanephrine (NMN); however, the application of liquid chromatography–

Construction and validation of a multimodal predictive model incorporating catecholamines and uric acid for early detection of hypertensive organ damage. [PDF]
ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and clinical value of constructing a predictive model for early detection of organ damage in hypertensive patients based on catecholamine-related indicators (norepinephrine, normetanephrine, and metanephrine ...

Adrenal pheochromocytoma incidentally discovered in a patient with parkinsonism [PDF]
To evaluate the diagnostic route of pheochromocytoma (PHEO) in a patient under dopaminergic treatment. A 70-year-old man with Parkinsonism and under treatment with levodopa and carbidopa came to our observation for evaluation of arterial hypertension and

Diagnostic accuracy of free and total metanephrines in plasma and fractionated metanephrines in urine of patients with pheochromocytoma [PDF]
BackgroundPlasma free and urinary metanephrines are recognized biomarkers for the assessment of pheochromocytoma. Plasma total metanephrines with a long half-life may represent another useful biomarker.ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performances of plasma total metanephrines alone or combined with free metanephrines and ...

Circulating GLP-1 Levels in Patients with Pheochromocytoma/Paraganglioma
The sympathoadrenal system has been shown to stimulate the secretory activity of enteroendocrine cells, although the response is transient. Our aim was to investigate the effects of long-term catecholamine excess on circulating glucagon-likepeptide-1 ...

Transient hypercortisolism and symptomatic hyperthyroidism associated to primary hyperparathyroidism in an elderly patient: case report and literature review. [PDF]
Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is often found on routine blood tests, at a relatively asymptomatic stage. However many studies suggest different systemic effects related to PHPT, which could be enhanced by an abnormal cortisol release due
