Abstract: The aims were to evaluate the relationship between idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA) and grade of vascular function in the macrovasculature and microvasculature. Vascular function, including reactive hyperemia index (RIH), flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD), and nitroglycerine-induced vasodilation (NID)… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Rationale: Primary aldosteronism (PA) comprises 2 main subtypes: unilateral aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) and idiopathic hyperaldosteronism or named as bilateral adrenal hyperplasia (BAH). An accurate discrimination between APA and BAH is crucial because the former… read more here.

Abstract: Primary aldosteronism affects ≈5% to 10% of hypertensive patients and has unilateral and bilateral forms. Most unilateral primary aldosteronism is caused by computed tomography-detectable aldosterone-producing adenomas, which express CYP11B2 (aldosterone synthase) and frequently harbor somatic… read more here.

Abstract: In the current issue of Hypertension, Omata et al have made a ground-breaking contribution to our understanding of the genesis of primary aldosteronism (PA). First, however, the background. For many years the pathogenesis of PA,… read more here.
