Summary Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) in horses is differentiated into type I (distal) and type II (proximal) forms. We report the diagnostic evaluation and treatment of type I RTA in a 13‐year‐old mule mare that was referred because of lethargy and inappetence of several weeks' duration as well as lack of manure, anorexia and mild colic for 3 days.

Renal juxtaglomerular cell tumor with normal renin activity and potassium level: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background Benign and rare renal juxtaglomerular cell tumor produces renin, leading to secondary hyperaldosteronism. Typical clinical features include hypertension, elevated renin activity, hyperaldosteronism, and hypokalemia. Herein, we present a unique

Expression of corticoid‐regulatory genes in the gills of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) parr and smolt and during salinity acclimation

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In teleost fishes, cortisol is the major corticoid and has both glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid actions. However, how fish tissues discriminate between these distinct corticosteroid actions is unclear. In mammals, the major factors responsible for intracellular corticosteroid regulation are glucocorticoid receptors (grs) and the ...

How should anti-hypertensive medications be adjusted before screening for primary aldosteronism?

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association
Anti-hypertensive medications may affect plasma renin activity and/or plasma aldosterone concentration, misleading the interpretation of the aldosterone-to-renin ratio when screening for primary aldosteronism. The Task Force of Taiwan PA recommends that,
