Unmasking of a Heterozygous <i>SLC12A3</i> Variant. [PDF]
Three months after starting 25 mg chlorthalidone, a patient was admitted to the medical intensive care unit to manage hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, hypo-osmolar hyponatremia, hyperglycemia, and 30 lb weight loss. The patient received ∼936 mEq potassium over 8 days, of which 456 mEq was administered during the first 2 days of admission. In the first

Novel heterozygous mutation of SLC12A3 gene in Gitelman syndrome [PDF]
Background Gitelman syndrome (GS) is an autosomal recessive disease primarily caused by mutations in the SLC12A3 gene, characterized by the hypokalaemic metabolic alkalosis with hypomagnesemia. Here, we investigated the mutation of SLC12A3 gene in a Chinese pedigree with GS and analyzed the clinical manifestations.

Urine electrolytes guide treatment of Gitelman syndrome and recurrent syncope-A case report. [PDF]
Abstract Syncope is a common reason for inpatient admission. Few case studies describe an association between syncope and Gitelman syndrome (GS). Herein, we present a case of a woman with hypokalemia and recurrent syncope which eventually led to a diagnosis of GS. A physiologic approach to urine electrolyte interpretation informed clinical decisions to

Allele-specific RT-PCR for the rapid detection of recurrent SLC12A3 mutations for Gitelman syndrome
Recurrent mutations in the SLC12A3 gene responsible for autosomal recessive Gitelman syndrome (GS) are frequently reported, but the exact prevalence is unknown.

The First Korean Case of SLC12A3 Aberrant Skipping of Two Exons Detected by RNA Splicing Analysis
Gitelman syndrome is a salt-losing tubular disorder that is transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait. Variants in the SLC12A3 gene are found in the majority of Gitelman syndrome patients. A 26-year-old woman visited the genetic counseling clinic.

A novel mutation of SLC12A3 gene causing Gitelman syndrome
A 48-year-old patient with a history of diabetes mellitus, presented to a surgical ward with abdominal pain. She was found to have hypokalemia. Her younger sister had passed away due to sudden cardiac death at the age of 25 years. Further evaluation revealed an elevated trans-tubular potassium gradient suggestive of renal potassium loss, normal blood ...

Gitelman Syndrome Presenting With Syncope and Treatment-Refractory Hypokalemia in A Young Woman: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Gitelman syndrome (GS) is a rare autosomal recessive tubulopathy characterized by hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis, hypomagnesemia, and hypocalciuria. A 27‐year‐old woman presented with a witnessed syncopal episode, progressive weakness, and nausea.
