Histopathological stratification of primary aldosteronism using the CYP11B2 size ratio: first evaluation in clinical routine

Histopathology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Adrenal vein sampling in differential diagnosis of primary aldosteronism on the example of a clinical case

, 2019
Primary aldosteronism is the most common cause of endocrine hypertension, occurring in 5–10% of patients with hypertension. Convincing evidence has been obtained indicating that primary aldosteronism increases the risk of cardiovascular complications ...

Advances in the biochemical diagnostics of primary aldosteronism: from immunoassays to steroidomics and proteomics

Frontiers in Endocrinology
Primary aldosteronism is the most common cause of secondary hypertension, yet most cases remain unrecognized and left without optimal treatment. The diagnostic inertia may be attributed to the lack of specific symptoms, insufficient awareness among ...

Improving primary aldosteronism diagnosis and treatment: outcomes from an endocrine hypertension service

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To evaluate the sustained impact of the Endocrine Hypertension Service on primary aldosteronism (PA) diagnosis and management over a subsequent 3‐year period. Background PA is a prevalent yet underdiagnosed cause of secondary hypertension, associated with increased cardiovascular, renal and metabolic risk. Limited awareness, resources and

Myocardial mechano-energetic efficiency in primary aldosteronism

, 2021
BACKGROUND: Available data indicate that patients with primary aldosteronism have an increased risk of cardiovascular events and cardiovascular risk seems to be, at least in part, independent of blood pressure (BP) values.

A scoping review of specialist hypertension clinics

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hypertension is an important preventable risk factor for cardiovascular and kidney disease, with limited data regarding the impact on blood pressure (BP) control following management in specialist hypertension clinics globally. Aims To summarise current literature on BP outcomes in SHCs and identify gaps in evidence.

Unmasking Hormonal Mechanisms of Hypertension in Obesity

JACC: Basic to Translational Science
Summary: Understanding hormonal mechanisms of obesity-related hypertension may inform targeted therapy. Participants with obesity and hypertension underwent deep-phenotyping procedures to detect the primary aldosteronism phenotype, low-renin phenotype ...
