Aldosterone producing adenoma and bilateral adrenal hyperplasia are the two most
common subtypes of primary aldosteronism (PA) that require targeted and distinct …

The hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis plays an important role in primary
aldosteronism. Aldosterone biosynthesis is regulated not only by angiotensin II in the renin …

Objective Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common surgically curable cause of
hypertension. Unilateral aldosterone-producing adenoma can be treated with …

Context Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common endocrine cause of hypertension.
The final diagnostic step involves subtyping, using adrenal vein sampling (AVS), to …

Context Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is recommended as the gold standard for subtype
classification in primary aldosteronism (PA); however, this approach has limited availability …

Little is known regarding the association of blood pressure (BP) after treatment for primary
aldosteronism (PA)(ie, adrenalectomy and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists) with long …

The adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) stimulation test (AST) has been reported to be useful for
diagnosing primary aldosteronism (PA), particularly for differentiating PA subtypes under 1 …

Adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is the gold standard test for distinguishing between
unilateral and bilateral primary aldosteronism (PA); however, AVS requires advanced and …

Context Previous studies suggested that plasma aldosterone (PAC) response to ACTH
stimulation could predict the subtypes of primary aldosteronism (PA) and avoid adrenal …

Background The diagnosis of primary aldosteronism (PA) requires screening and
confirmation testing. The present study examined whether the 1 µg ACTH stimulation test for …
