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! @WeArePAOrg @TheEndoSociety

More evidence for treating hypertension with mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, if renin is low despite ACE-inhibition. It is probably #PrimaryAldosteronism!
Anand Vaidya@AnandVaidya173 Apr 2025
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/TUS6C… @ChengHsuanTsai

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 @JeniferBrown ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/…

CV red flag missed in lupus patients - Rheumatology Republic

Doctors are overlooking an important test that could reduce hypertension and thus deaths in these patients.

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. @SCSMonash @Hudson_Research @MonashHealth

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. @WeArePAOrg @EndoSocAus @TheEndoSociety @HypertensionAus @Hudson_Research ahajournals.org/doi/abs/10.1…
