Comparative Analysis of Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry and Radioimmunoassay in Determining Plasma Aldosterone Concentration and Plasma Renin Activity for Primary Aldosteronism Screening [PDF]
Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) accurately measures plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC), but its correlation with radioimmunoassay (RIA), equivalent RIA levels, and optimal cutoff for PAC and aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR ...

Serum Vitamin D and Uric Acid Levels in Glaucoma Patients: A Comprehensive Investigation [PDF]
Objective: Glaucoma is an eye condition characterized by optic nerve damage due to inflammation and oxidative stress, often associated with increased intraocular pressure (IOP). Vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin with anti-inflammatory properties, and uric
