Between 1982 and 1995, 43 cases of primary aldosteronism, 36 cases of adenoma, and 7 cases of hyperplasia were treated in Chang Gung Medical Center. Twenty-one of these (49%) presented with muscular paralysis as an initial symptom (categorized as the paralytic group). Seven patients in the paralytic

Potassium depletion frequently occurs in primary aldosteronism and has been implicated as the cause of the impaired carbohydrate tolerance frequently associated with this syndrome. Glucose, insulin, and growth hormone regulation were studied in a 42-yr-old, male patient with an aldosterone-secreting

A 35-year-old man presented with acute onset of bilateral lower extremity weakness after ingesting a large amount of carbohydrates. Laboratory investigation revealed severe hypokalemia (1.9 mEq/l) and hyperthyroidism. The patient also exhibited primary aldosteronism due to a left adrenal adenoma. As

An association between primary aldosteronism and metabolism disorders has been reported. The aim of this retrospective study was to test for this association by comparison between large cohorts of patients with primary aldosteronism and with essential hypertension. We retrieved the records of 460

In the case reported, an overproduction of aldosterone was accompanied by paretic attacks, a decrease in the serum potassium level, and in muscle tone and the deep tendon reflexes. The decrease of serum potassium level was consistent, but moderate, being to just below the normal lower limit. Loading

In man the first days of fasting are characterized by enhanced natriuresis despite an increase in aldosterone secretion. Therefore the possibility of a decreased renal tubular sensitivity to this hormone was considered. The response to aldosterone infused before a fast and again on day 4 of fasting

Idiopathic edema is a syndrome of real or perceived excessive weight gain. This article reviews what is known about the possible causes, evaluation, and treatment. Although the cause is unknown but often thought to be due to secondary hyperaldosteronism, primary abnormalities of the hypothalamus,

Changes in sensitivity to insulin occur in the course of a number of endocrine disorders. Most of the hormones through their antagonistic action to insulin lead to increased hepatic glucose output and its decreased utilisation in peripheral tissues. Carbohydrate disorders observed in endocrine

The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system plays an important role in the development and maintenance of high blood pressure in several forms of hypertension. In hypertensive patients with primary aldosteronism, antimineralocorticoids are, as expected, very effective in reducing blood pressure and

BACKGROUND
Hypokalemic periodic paralysis (HypoPP) is a rare disorder consisting of sudden episodes of muscle weakness with areflexia involving all four limbs, which spontaneously resolve within several hours or days. Primary HypoPP is genetically determined, while secondary acquired HypoPP has been

Patients with the "non-salt-losing" form of the adrenogenital syndrome were studied before and after suppression of adrenal cortical activity with carbohydrate-active steroids. The response of aldosterone secretion to sodium deprivation was measured; in some patients response to adrenocorticotropic

Complex hormonal regulation of carbohydrate metabolism causes that presence of many endocrine disorders may disturb glucose homeostasis. Impaired fasting glucose, impaired glucose tolerance and frank diabetes are observed in patients with both common and rare endocrine disorders, particularly in
