    Abstract Background: Measuring blood pressure in patients with obesity is challenging. The ClearSight™ finger cuff (FC) uses the vascular unloading technique to provide continuous non-invasive blood pressure measurements. We aimed to test the agreement of the FC with invasive radial arterial monitoring (INV) in patients with obesity.
    Methods: Participants had a body mass index (BMI) ≥45 kg/m
    Results: The 30 participants had a median (IQR) BMI of 50.2 kg/m
    Conclusions: The vascular unloading technique was not adequately in agreement with radial arterial monitoring. Evaluation in a larger sample is required before recommending this technique for intraoperative monitoring of patients with BMI ≥45 kg/m

    Abstract Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions that increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases, and comprises obesity, hypertension, impaired glucose metabolism and dyslipidaemia. It is well recognised that the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) plays an important role in blood pressure regulation via its effect on salt and water retention in renal tubules, with hypertension being a key feature in primary aldosteronism patients with excess adrenal production of aldosterone, the primary ligand for MRs in the epithelial tissues. MRs are also expressed in a number of non-epithelial tissues including adipose tissue; in these tissues, glucocorticoids or cortisol can also activate MRs due to low levels of 11-beta-hydroxysteroid-dehydrogenase type 2 (11-βHSD2), the enzyme which inactivates cortisol. There is increasing evidence suggesting that over-activation of MRs plays a role in the pathophysiology of the other components of metabolic syndrome, promoting adiposity, inflammation and glucose intolerance, and that MR antagonists may confer beneficial effects on energy and substrate homeostasis and cardiometabolic diseases. This review discusses the advances in the literature shedding light on the MR as an emerging player in metabolic syndrome.

    Abstract Although the aldosterone/renin ratio (ARR) is the preferred screening test for primary aldosteronism (PA), patients with non-suppressed renin and a falsely negative ARR on non-interfering medications have occasionally been reported. This report describes the clinical characteristics and outcomes of seven patients with proven aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) and non-suppressed renin.Chart review of seven PA patients with an APA and a non-suppressed plasma renin concentration (PRC > 8.4 mU/L) was undertaken to collect data on anthropometric and biochemical characteristics, diagnostic evaluation and postsurgical outcomes.Seven patients (two women and five men) with a proven APA had median (range) PRC, plasma aldosterone and ARR of 20 (9-43) mU/L, 750 (270-1940) pmol/L and 45 (8-62, normal <70), respectively, on non-interfering medications. Six patients had two consecutive ARR measurements and in five of them both were normal. Renal artery stenosis was carefully excluded in all patients. Further evaluation for PA was pursued because of high clinical suspicion (either hypokalaemia and/or a known adrenal mass lesion on imaging). All underwent adrenal vein sampling confirming unilateral PA which was managed by unilateral adrenalectomy. Postsurgical follow-up data either confirmed or were highly suggestive of cure of PA.Strict control of factors known to influence the ARR is crucial to avoid false-negative results. Other causes that could explain a non-suppressed renin should be excluded. In patients with a consistently non-suppressed renin further diagnostic workup for PA should be considered if clinical suspicion remains high.
