Renin‐Angiotensin‐Aldosterone System, Glucose Metabolism and Incident Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: MESA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Mechanistic studies suggest that aldosterone impairs glucose metabolism. We investigated the cross‐sectional associations of aldosterone and plasma renin activity with fasting plasma glucose, insulin resistance (IR), β‐cell function, and ...

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

open access: yes, 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.

Application of a radioimmunoassay for angiotensin I to the physiologic measurements of plasma renin activity in normal human subjects.

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1969
A radioimmunoassay for angiotensin I and its application to the determination of renin activity is described. The assay employs antibodies raised to copolymers of angiotensin I and succinylated poly-l-lysine. Angiotensin labeled with 125I and purified by

Heightened Cardiovascular Risk in Hypertension Associated With Renin‐Independent Aldosteronism Versus Renin‐Dependent Aldosteronism: A Collaborative Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background While both renin‐dependent and renin‐independent aldosterone secretion contribute to aldosteronism, their relative associations with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk has not been investigated.

The ratios of aldosterone / plasma renin activity (ARR) versus aldosterone / direct renin concentration (ADRR)

open access: yesJournal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2015
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is estimated to occur in 5–12% of patients with hypertension. Assessment of aldosterone / plasma renin activity (PRA) ratio (ARR) has been used as a screening test in patients suspected of PA. Direct determination of renin (DRC)

Suspected primary hyperreninism in a cat with malignant renal sarcoma and global renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system upregulation

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2022
A 14‐year‐old male castrated domestic medium‐hair cat with diabetes mellitus was evaluated for vomiting, diarrhea, and anorexia. Two weeks before presentation, the cat had been diagnosed with congestive heart failure and started on furosemide.

Plasma Renin Activity and Aldosterone Concentrations in Hypertensive Cats with and without Azotemia and in Response to Treatment with Amlodipine Besylate

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2013
Background Role of renin‐angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) in feline systemic hypertension is poorly understood. Objectives Examine plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone concentrations (PAC) in normotensive and hypertensive cats with ...

Plasma aldosterone and renin activity. [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood, 1989
Eight infants had paired measurements of plasma aldosterone and plasma renin activity while being treated for congestive heart failure. There is parallelism with aldosterone and renin activity in the presence of a hyperactive renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.
