Article Synopsis
- Primary aldosteronism is a condition marked by excessive aldosterone production due to adrenal gland lesions, primarily characterized by disrupted regulation of aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2).
- In a study of aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) without known mutations, researchers discovered specific mutations in the gene for mucolipin-3 (TRPML3) associated with increased calcium activity and aldosterone production.
- These findings suggest that mutations in TRPML3 may contribute to hormone excess in primary aldosteronism, highlighting the disease's underlying genetic factors and their impact on hypertension.
Background: Increased posterior tibial slope (PTS) has been identified as a risk factor for failure after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Correction of PTS may improve outcomes after revision ACL reconstruction. There are conflicting reports demonstrating the measurement of the PTS on standard short knee (SSK) radiographs versus full-length lateral (FLL) radiographs including the entire tibia.

As there is little knowledge about the communication behaviour of doctors towards TGNC, this survey aimed to assess the self-reported trans-inclusive communication of doctors and their willingness to communicate trans-inclusively, as well as their self-perceived barriers to it. A mixed-methods survey was applied for this.
