Diverse Responses of Autoantibodies to the Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor in Primary Aldosteronism [PDF]
Primary aldosteronism is a common form of endocrine hypertension mainly caused by a unilateral aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) or bilateral adrenal hyperplasia (BAH).

New advances in the diagnosis of primary aldosteronism
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common form of endocrine hypertension. The diagnostic process of PA includes a screening test, confirmatory test, and subtype classification.

CYP11B2 immunohistochemistry identifies aldosterone‐producing nodules and enables objective subtyping using the B2 ratio (B2R), defined as the size ratio between the largest and second‐largest CYP11B2‐positive nodules. A B2R ≥8.1 indicates classical histology with a dominant lesion and high likelihood of cure, whereas B2R <8.1 reflects non‐classical ...

Activation of aldosterone secretion in primary aldosteronism [PDF]
Angiotensin infusion evokes marked increases in aldosterone secretion in primary aldosteronism and little change in secondary aldosteronism. The low plasma renin activity of primary aldosteronism and the elevated plasma renin activity of secondary aldosteronism are thought to account for this differential response.

ABSTRACT Glucocorticoid resistance syndrome (GRS) is a rare hereditary disorder caused by pathogenic variants in NR3C1, characterized by marked phenotypic heterogeneity and frequent misdiagnosis as primary aldosteronism or subclinical Cushing's syndrome.

Primary aldosteronism in pregnancy
AbstractPrimary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common form of secondary hypertension. Although hypertensive disorders seem to affect around 5–10% of pregnancies worldwide, literature counts less than 80 cases of PA diagnosed during the peri-partum period.

Primary aldosteronism: Novel insights
Background: Primary aldosteronism is one of the most common causes of secondary hypertension. Patients with this endocrine syndrome are at increased cardiovascular risk, higher than hypertensive individuals with equal blood pressure levels.

Primary aldosteronism and obstructive sleep apnea: What do we know thus far?
Both primary aldosteronism and obstructive sleep apnea are well-known causes of hypertension and contribute to increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality independently.

ABSTRACT Medication use is common in large‐scale population cohorts, and can modify phenotypic traits of interest. This can potentially bias effect estimates in genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) and impact downstream analyses such as Mendelian randomisation (MR). The best approach to account for medication use in GWAS is unclear. In this study, we
