Basal Plasma Aldosterone Concentration Predicts Therapeutic Outcomes in Primary Aldosteronism. [PDF]

J Endocr Soc, 2020
Abstract Purpose Normal basal plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) reflects mild aldosterone excess compared to high basal PAC. We previously reported lower risk for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) and normal basal PAC (nPA) than in those with ...

Relationship Between Visceral Fat and Plasma Aldosterone Concentration in Patients With Primary Aldosteronism. [PDF]

J Endocr Soc, 2018
The involvement of visceral fat in aldosterone secretion has not been reported in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA). Patients with PA are complicated by metabolic syndrome more frequently than those without PA. An excess of visceral fat has been hypothesized to cause an elevation of aldosterone secretion in patients with PA.To clarify the role ...

Plasma Aldosterone Concentrations during the Neonatal Period [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 1977
The direct radioimmunoassay for plasma aldosterone (PA) set up in this laboratory has been reported elsewere. Subjects were 115 normal full term newborns and infants. During the first week of life, there was a wide dispersion in the PA levels (less than 1 - 445, n = 89), but on the whole these levels were high (greater than 6 ng/100 ml) and 35% were ...

Circadian Rhythm of Plasma Aldosterone Concentration in Patients with Primary Aldosteronism [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1973
Plasma aldosterone, cortisol, and renin activity were measured in nine recumbent patients with hyperaldosteronism, including seven with adenomas, one with idiopathic hyperplasia, and one with glucocorticoid suppressible hyperplasia. All had peak values of plasma aldosterone concentration from 3 a.m. to noon and lowest values at 6 p.m. or midnight. This

Body mass index predicts aldosterone production in hypertensive postmenopausal women

Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2020
Hypertension is a common clinical problem, and increased aldosterone is the most prevalent underlying characteristic. Related works have shown exciting results on the effects of various conditions on aldosterone content, but the correlation between ...

Age-Related Cutoffs of Plasma Aldosterone/Renin Concentration for Primary Aldosteronism Screening [PDF]

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2018
Aim. This retrospective study is aimed at investigating whether aldosterone-renin ratio (ARR) cutoffs calculated by the plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC)/plasma renin concentration (PRC) should be set differently in patients of different ages. Methods. 521 hypertensive patients were screened for primary aldosteronism (PA) by the PAC/PRC.

Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and renin-aldosterone in volume regulation of patients with cirrhosis [PDF]

, 1989
The role of the atrial natriuretic factor and of the main counteracting sodium-retaining principle, the renin-aldosterone system, in acute volume regulation of cirrhosis of the liver has been investigated.

Diagnostic efficacy of chemiluminescence immunoassay versus radioimmunoassay in screening primary aldosteronism

Di-san junyi daxue xuebao, 2019
Objective To compare the sensitivity and specificity of chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) and radioimmunoassay (RIA) in detection of aldosterone and renin, and to explore the optional detection methods and indicators for screening primary ...

Elevated Myoglobin in Patients With Primary Aldosteronism: A Cross-Sectional Study

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
ObjectivesPrimary aldosteronism (PA) is characterized by the autonomous excessive production of aldosterone in the adrenal cortex. Aldosterone is associated with damages to heart muscle and skeletal muscle. The purpose of this study was to evaluate serum
