Under physiological stress, this may contribute to secondary adrenal insufficiency and severe hyponatremia. Clinicians should consider adrenal insufficiency in patients with primary aldosteronism presenting with unexplained ...

Olfactory‐Related Quality of Life After Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Surgery
The QOD‐LQ, QOD‐VAS, and the “decreased sense of smell” item of the SNOT‐22, reflecting olfactory‐related quality of life (QOL) and subjective olfactory dysfunction, significantly deteriorated after EETSA in a substantial proportion of patients, even though psychophysical olfactory function was preserved.

The Serum Testosterone Level in Male Patients Is Inversely Associated With Hypertension Incidence
ABSTRACT Hypertension is a primary risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and all‐cause mortality. Testosterone, the most potent androgen in males, regulates reproduction, metabolism, and erythropoiesis. Hypertension incidence increases with age, whereas testosterone levels decline. Thus, we conducted a study to explore the association between the two
