A trial of #finerenone in treating #PrimaryAldosteronism. As expected, it was as good as spironolactone at lowering BP, without the adverse effects. Now we need a larger RCT.

I haven't baked properly for a long time, as it takes time away from writing, reviewing, editing, research in general... but gee, it felt amazing to have completed my first chestnut cake for a special occasion!

People with #lupus experience a high burden of #hypertension and #heart disease. Should they be screened for #PrimaryAldosteronism? In our cohort of 322 patients with lupus, 30% has an indication for PA screening, only 3% were tested.

Do patients want to be screened for primary aldosteronism: Yes How much PA can be identified with a direct-to-patient approach: A Lot Can this approach be implemented nationwide: Yes Jen Brown ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/HY…

More evidence for treating hypertension with mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, if renin is low despite ACE-inhibition. It is probably #PrimaryAldosteronism!

Extremely exciting to share the new #PrimaryAldosteronism guidelines. Big advance in suggesting that all hypertensive adults should be screened for PA. Let's diagnose and treat every patient with this common, deleterious but highly treatable disease! PrimaryAldosteronismOrg Endocrine Society
