The Primary Aldosteronism Surgical Outcome Score for the Prediction of Clinical Outcomes After Adrenalectomy for Unilateral Primary Aldosteronism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
MINI: Clinical remission after unilateral adrenalectomy to treat unilateral primary aldosteronism is achieved in less than half of patients. A linear discriminant model with 6 presurgical predictors of clinical remission was used to build a 25-point ...

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

open access: yesDiagnostics, 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

Primary Aldosteronism or Not Primary Aldosteronism [PDF]

open access: yesHypertension, 2017
See related article, pp 950–956 Primary aldosteronism (PA) within hypertensive populations is no longer regarded as being a rare phenomenon. Although some debate around its overall frequency remains, one of the most robust studies in recent years describes a prevalence of ≈10% in unselected hypertensives1; this may rise to ≤20% in subjects with ...

Adrenocortical Causes of Hypertension

open access: yesInternational 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.

Mass Spectrometry Imaging Establishes 2 Distinct Metabolic Phenotypes of Aldosterone-Producing Cell Clusters in Primary Aldosteronism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) are one of the main causes of primary aldosteronism and the most prevalent surgically correctable form of hypertension.

Primary aldosteronism: Pathophysiological mechanisms of cell death and proliferation

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Primary aldosteronism is the most common surgically curable form of hypertension. The sporadic forms of the disorder are usually caused by aldosterone overproduction from a unilateral adrenocortical aldosterone-producing adenoma or from bilateral ...

Masked arterial hypertension in a 64-year-old man with primary aldosteronism

open access: yesBlood Pressure, 2022
Purpose Primary aldosteronism is one of the most frequent causes of secondary arterial hypertension, and whether primary aldosteronism is associated with masked hypertension is unknown.

Unusual presentation of primary aldosteronism with advanced target organ damage: A case report

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2019
Patients with primary aldosteronism have greater cardiovascular morbidity and mortality than patients with primary hypertension and a comparable cardiovascular risk profile.
