International histopathology consensus for unilateral primary aldosteronism [PDF]
Objective: Develop a consensus for the nomenclature and definition of adrenal histopathologic features in unilateral primary aldosteronism (PA). Context: Unilateral PA is the most common surgically treated form of hypertension. Morphologic examination

Single-Center Prospective Cohort Study on the Histopathology, Genotype, and Postsurgical Outcomes of Patients With Primary Aldosteronism [PDF]
Unilateral forms of primary aldosteronism are usually surgically treated to remove the source of aldosterone excess. After adrenalectomy, aldosteronism persists in some patients indicating abnormal aldosterone production from the unresected gland.

Identification of risk loci for primary aldosteronism in genome-wide association studies. [PDF]
Primary aldosteronism affects up to 10% of hypertensive patients and is responsible for treatment resistance and increased cardiovascular risk. Here we perform a genome-wide association study in a discovery cohort of 562 cases and 950 controls and ...

Subclinical primary aldosteronism. [PDF]
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a major contributor to hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Subclinical PA, a preclinical or early manifestation of PA, has been identified in individuals with normal blood pressure and in those with mild hypertension without signs or symptoms of overt PA, using evidence from histopathology, hormonal biochemistry ...

Adiponectin and Insulin Sensitivity in Primary Aldosteronism [PDF]
BACKGROUND: A high prevalence of metabolic syndrome has been reported in primary aldosteronism. Low levels of adiponectin, an adipokine with insulin-sensitizing properties, are considered a hallmark of the metabolic syndrome.

Primary aldosteronism and pregnancy
Primary aldosteronism is the most common cause of secondary hypertension. Less than 50 cases of pregnancy in women with primary aldosteronism have been reported, suggesting the disorder is significantly underdiagnosed in confinement.

The Value of Targeting CXCR4 with 68Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT for Subtyping Primary Aldosteronism.
PURPOSE Primary aldosteronism (PA) is one of the leading causes of secondary hypertension, and its diagnostic subtyping consistently presents a clinical challenge.
