Diagnosis/Pathophysiology of Glucocorticoid Remediable Aldosteronism Hypertension Clinical Trials References presented on Clinical Trials Search is not intended to be a substitute for proven healthcare advice, trips or professional assistance by using a real medical. We aren't mDs. Always confer with your physician about Diagnosis/Pathophysiology of Glucocorticoid Remediable Aldosteronism Hypertension conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a website devoted to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Diagnosis/Pathophysiology of Glucocorticoid Remediable Aldosteronism Hypertension Clinical research trials and Diagnosis/Pathophysiology of Glucocorticoid Remediable Aldosteronism Hypertension medical trials take place in hundreds of localities across the U.S.. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials usually evaluate the effectualness of new does drugs. The purpose of the studies / projects is to solve specific human health questions. Clinical trials are a popular way for physicians, government agencies, and private sector companies to discover treatments for all sorts of conditions, such as Diagnosis/Pathophysiology of Glucocorticoid Remediable Aldosteronism Hypertension. Diagnosis/Pathophysiology of Glucocorticoid Remediable Aldosteronism Hypertension Clinical Trials and other clinical trials permit volunteers to access healthcare treatment choices before they are available to the general public. Some times the subjects recieve professional assistance for without cost, and every now and again they are compensated for their time. Sometimes there is a cost for a Diagnosis/Pathophysiology of Glucocorticoid Remediable Aldosteronism Hypertension clinical trial. Subjects often receive the most expert healthcare possible for their Diagnosis/Pathophysiology of Glucocorticoid Remediable Aldosteronism Hypertension condition. Risks are a reality, nevertheless, and could include additional or frequent dr. calls, healthcare dangers (perhaps life-jeopardising), and/or the treatment being ineffective. Trials are federally governed with stern guidelines to protect clinical trials subjects.

Diagnosis/Pathophysiology of Glucocorticoid Remediable Aldosteronism Hypertension



Diagnosis/Pathophysiology of Glucocorticoid Remediable Aldosteronism Hypertension

For Condition: Heart Diseases,Hypertension,Cardiovascular Diseases
Status: Completed
Sponsor(s): National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) ,
Synopsis: To identify and study a large cohort of glucocorticoid remediable aldosteronism (GRA) patients.
Details: DESIGN NARRATIVE: The spectrum of the severity and the natural history of the disorder was characterized. Modifying environmental and genetic factors important in regulation of blood pressure were determined. Also, renal physiology was studied in GRA patients to determine how these patients escaped hypokalemia in spite of mineralocorticoid excess. There were four specific aims including: 1) to determine the natural history and prevalence of GRA in various hypertensive populations, 2) to characterize the magnitude of effect imparted on blood pressure by inheritance of GRA and the sources of variation in phenotype expression of the hypertension, 3) to investigate the renal and hormonal mechanisms regulating potassium conservation and loss in GRA, and 4) to characterize the disequilibrium of GRA with Irish and Scottish descent and specific alleles of the aldosterone synthase gene.
