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.

Downregulated serum 14, 15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid is associated with abdominal aortic calcification in patients with primary aldosteronism [PDF]

, 2018
Patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) have increased risk of target-organ damage, among which vascular calcification is an important indicator of cardiovascular mortality.

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.

Alterations in vascular function in primary aldosteronism - a cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging study [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction: Excess aldosterone is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Aldosterone has a permissive effect on vascular fibrosis. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) allows study of vascular function by measuring aortic ...

Identification of risk loci for primary aldosteronism in genome-wide association studies

Nature Communications, 2022
Detection of primary aldosteronism, the most common form of secondary arterial hypertension, is essential for targeted management and prevention of cardiovascular complications.

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

Aldosterone status associates with insulin resistance in patients with heart failure-data from the ALOFT study [PDF]

, 2009
<b>Background</b>: Aldosterone plays a key role in the pathophysiology of heart failure. In around 50% of such patients, aldosterone 'escapes' from inhibition by drugs that interrupt the renin-angiotensin axis; such patients have a worse ...

The prevalence of resistant arterial hypertension and secondary causes in a cohort of hypertensive patients: a single center experience [PDF]

, 2017
The prevalence of resistant hypertension (RHT) still remains unknown. Aim of the study was to investigate in a large cohort of hypertensive patients the prevalence of RHT, and to identify in these patients the secondary forms of arterial hypertension (SH)

Adrenocortical Causes of Hypertension

International Journal of Hypertension, 2011
Primary aldosteronism is the most common cause of secondary hypertension. In the past, screening for primary aldosteronism was offered only in patients with hypertension associated with hypokalemia.
