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.

Delighted to share perspective piece Circulation on history of resistant HTN with Adina Turcu In the US, it was 1st defined by JNC V report. Back then, RH need a diuretic+2 drugs: BB, vasodilator, CCB, or ACEI. We have come a long way! UTSW Heart tinyurl.com/3tttvaye

Work smarter, not harder! A low renin with concurrent use of ACEi/ARB is almost certainly some shade of Primary Aldosteronism. Either way, aldosterone-directed therapy is very likely to provide major clinical benefits ahajournals.org/eprint/TUS6CGX… Cheng-Hsuan Tsai

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

Hats off to Lauren Fishbein - here at Endocrine Society #ENDO2025 who presented new data on modifier genes in paraganglioma-pheochromocytoma from GWAS studies with close to 2000 tumor samples from A5_AdrenalAlliance teams around the globe. New targets, new biology. Hope for new therapies!
