Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists in ESKD [PDF]
Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2020 There is an urgent need for interventions that reduce cardiovascular risks in patients with ESKD. Recently there has been considerable interest in whether blocking the effects of the mineralocorticoid aldosterone could be such an intervention.

Pseudohypoaldosteronism in a newborn male with functional polymorphisms in the mineralocorticoid receptor genes [PDF]
Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2015 Hyponatremia and hyperkalemia in infancy can be attributed to various causes, originating from a variety of renal and genetic disorders. Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1) is one of these disorders, causing mineralocorticoid resistance that results in
