Visualization of Right Adrenal Vein in Non-Contrast-Enhanced MDCT and Its Guiding Role for Right Adrenal Venous Sampling.
J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich)
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, Nanchang, Donghu District, P.R. China.
This study aimed to evaluate the visualization of right adrenal vein (RAV) in non-contrast-enhanced multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) and its guiding role for right adrenal venous sampling (AVS) in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA). A total of 237 patients diagnosed with PA who underwent successful AVS procedures from January 2020 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The non-contrast-enhanced MDCT image features of RAV included the degree of visualization and the position of RAV orifice.

Division of Cardiology, Department of Internal Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital and National Taiwan University College of Medicine, Taipei, Taiwan.
Background: Mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) is common in adrenal adenomas, including patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) with aldosterone-producing adenomas (APA). This study investigated the impact of MACS on cardiac remodeling and diastolic dysfunction in patients with APA.
Methods: We prospectively enrolled 483 patients with APA.
Concomitant pheochromocytoma and hyperaldosteronism in a 47-year-old man: a case report.

Cardiovascular Surgery Department, Shahid Rajaee Hospital, Alborz University of Medical Sciences, Karaj, Iran.
Background: The coexistence of pheochromocytoma and hyperaldosteronism is a rare and clinically significant finding with diagnostic challenges that need to be considered in the workup of patients with hypertension.
Case Presentation: This case report describes a 47-year-old Iranian man who initially presented with cold symptoms, chills, and headaches. Despite being diagnosed with panic disorder, his symptoms worsened, leading to a systolic blood pressure crisis.
EGR1 regulates oxidative stress and aldosterone production in adrenal cells and aldosterone-producing adenomas.

Aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) are a major cause of primary aldosteronism, a common form of endocrine hypertension. Here, we demonstrate that Early Growth Response 1 (EGR1) plays a dual role in adrenal cell biology, regulating both oxidative stress and aldosterone production. Using RNA sequencing of RSL3-treated human adrenal cells and spatial transcriptomics of adrenal glands from patients with primary aldosteronism, we identify EGR1 as a key gene associated with RSL3-related oxidative stress and APAs.

Division of Internal Medicine 4 and Hypertension Unit, Department of Medical Sciences, University of Torino, Torino, Italy.
Purpose: The delayed or missed diagnosis of secondary hypertension contributes to the poor blood pressure control worldwide. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic approach to primary aldosteronism (PA) and pheochromocytoma (PHEO) among Italian centers associated to European and Italian Societies of Hypertension.
Methods: Between July and December 2023, a 10-items questionnaire was administered to experts from 82 centers of 14 Italian regions and to cardiologists from the ARCA (Associazioni Regionali Cardiologi Ambulatoriali) Piemonte.
