Emerging methods for subtype differentiation in primary aldosteronism. [PDF]

J Intern Med
Abstract Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common cause of hypertension. Compared to patients with essential hypertension, untreated PA is associated with a two‐ to fourfold greater risk of cardiovascular disease, renal failure, and death. PA is caused by increased secretion of aldosterone from one adrenal gland in 30% of the patients and both adrenal ...

Optimal Cut-Off Values of the Aldosterone-Renin Ratio in Different Age Groups for Primary Aldosteronism Screening. [PDF]

J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich)
ABSTRACT This study sought to establish age‐specific optimal cut‐off values for the aldosterone‐to‐renin ratio (ARR) in screening for primary aldosteronism (PA). The analysis included 281 patients with confirmed PA and 1242 with essential hypertension (EH), categorized into four age groups: ≤39, 40–49, 50–59, and ≥60 years.

Primary aldosteronism

Kidney International, 1984
We retrospectively reviewed the clinical features, methods of diagnosis and localization, and results of treatment in 105 patients with primary aldosteronism seen between 1969 and 1981. Coincident with the use of computed tomography (CT), 131I-6-beta-iodomethyl norcholesterol scans (NP-59), and postural response studies, the study group was temporally ...

Consensus on Clinical Application of the CXCR4-targeted Imaging in the Diagnosis of Primary Aldosteronism(2022)

Xiehe Yixue Zazhi, 2022
Subtype classification of primary aldosteronism is important but challenging. Increasing evidence has shown that 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT imaging which targets CXCR4 is beneficial to the subtype classification of primary aldosteronism.

Different pathogenesis of glucose intolerance in two subtypes of primary aldosteronism: Aldosterone‐producing adenoma and idiopathic hyperaldosteronism

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, 2020
Aims/Introduction An increased risk of diabetes mellitus has been reported in primary aldosteronism, but the pathogenesis of glucose intolerance between the primary aldosteronism subtypes remains unclear.

Strain Imaging for the Early Detection of Cardiac Remodeling and Dysfunction in Primary Aldosteronism

Diagnostics, 2022
Speckle tracking echocardiography is a novel technique to quantify cardiac function and deformation. It has been applied in a series of cardiovascular diseases for the evaluation of early cardiac impairment. We recently used this technique to investigate

A Retrospective Study on the Impact of Primary Aldosteronism in Pregnancy (H.A.P.P.I. Study Group). [PDF]

Clin Endocrinol (Oxf)
ABSTRACT Objective Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common cause of hypertension in young women. However, there is a paucity of data regarding its impact during pregnancy. The primary objective of this study was to describe the occurrence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) in PA.
