A Ten Year Overview of Adrenal Vein Sampling in Croatia: Insights and Outcomes
ABSTRACT Background Adrenal vein sampling (AVS) is the gold standard for subtype differentiation in primary aldosteronism (PA), yet it remains technically demanding and resource intensive. However, data on long‐term performance, learning curves, and concordance with imaging in real‐world clinical practice are limited.

Hypercortisolism: Causes, Consequences and Clinical Significance – A Review of Pathophysiology
ABSTRACT Hypercortisolism or Cushing syndrome is a heterogeneous clinical spectrum caused by chronic glucocorticoid excess, ranging from exogenous Cushing syndrome to rare endogenous aetiologies and the increasingly recognised entity of mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS). Physiological cortisol production is tightly regulated by the hypothalamic–

ABSTRACT Endogenous hypercortisolism (EHC) is an underrecognised and clinically significant contributor to hypertension, particularly resistant hypertension. Once viewed as a rare entity, EHC is now understood as a spectrum of cortisol excess associated with adverse cardiometabolic outcomes and target‐organ damage.
