Filter by:The aim of the proposed study is to estimate the incidence of Mild Autonomous Cortisol Secretion (MACS) in patients with Adrenal Incidentaloma (AI) and evaluate the available diagnostic tests to determine the most sensitive and specific combination of tests for assessing MACS from adrenal adenoma for prediction of the phenotype associated with cortisol excess. As well as following the patients for 4 years and see if anything changes.
The goal of this clinical trial is to exploring the role of tubeless after adrenalectomy surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. The safety of tubeless laparoscopic adrenalectomy； 2. The role of tubeless therapy in rapid recovery after adrenalectomy surgery Participants will be randomly divided into two groups: the non drainage group and the drainage group after laparoscopic adrenal surgery, and their pain, first time out of bed, and intestinal recovery time will be observed.
WHYSKI is a prospective within-patient observational clinical study designed to test the hypothesis that alterations of Na+, K+, water, and the lympho-angiogenetic transcription factor Tonicity Enhancing Binding Protein (TonEBP) mRNA take place in the interstitium of the skin compartment of patients with arterial hypertension due to primary aldosteronism in whom hypertension can be surgically cured.
Pheochromocytomas are tumors of the adrenal gland that develop from cells producing adrenaline and noradrenaline. Consequently, intraoperative blood pressure variations (hypertensive and hypotensive episodes) are characteristic of pheochromocytoma surgery, when these tumors are removed. However, recommendations for the management of these tumors are based on data essentially dating from the 1960s-1990s. Since then, anesthesia and surgery for patients with pheochromocytoma have evolved considerably, and have become more effective with time. In these circumstances, a review of the current situation is necessary. The aim of this study is to investigate the intraoperative hemodynamic changes observed in patients undergoing adrenalectomy for pheochromocytoma, comparing them with the hemodynamic profile observed in patients undergoing adrenal surgery for a pathology other than pheochromocytoma (control group).
The goal of this multicenter, observational, analytic, randomized clinical trial is to analyze the laparoscopic and robot-assisted method in the surgical treatment of patients with adrenal diseases. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. to find the superiority of one the the surgical method mentioned above 2. to compare the quality of life in patients with adrenal mass before surgery and after laparoscopic or robotic-assisted adrenalectomy.
The purpose of this study is to retrospectively and prospectively analyze the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation and laparoscopic adrenalectomy in the treatment of aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA). It is planned to retrospectively collect 30 patients with adrenal radiofrequency ablation for APA and 15 patients with age - and sex-matched laparoscopic adrenalectomy for APA in our hospital from January 2020 to June 2024, and continue to follow up for 3 years.
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common cause of secondary hypertension, which is characterized by excessive aldosterone production by the adrenal gland. Excessive aldosterone can significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke. Patients with aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) or unilateral hyperplasia (UAH) can be cured by unilateral adrenalectomy. The adrenal cortex is the outer part of the adrenal gland and is subdivided into three layers- the zona glomerulosa, the zona fasciculata, and the zona reticularis. And the outermost layer is the zona glomerulosa, and it's full of cells that make the hormone aldosterone. Although it has been investigated that the main cause of APA or UAH is the mutations of different calcium ion channels, including KCNJ5, CACNA1D, CLCN2 et al, it is still unknown whether there are any other changes of other proteins in different layers. Therefore, the investigators designed the study to characterize the proteomics profiles of adrenal adenoma/hyperplasia leading to primary aldosterone and identify biomarkers for early identification of PA by using spatial proteomics. The samples from adrenal adenoma or hyperplasia will be collected and analyzed by spatial proteomics in Hangzhou Jingjie Biotechnology Co., Ltd. The differentially expressed proteins in different layers will be screened out between APA and UAH, APA and its adjacent normal tissues, and UAH and its adjacent normal tissues, respectively. And KEGG analysis will be conducted to determine enriched pathway in these differentially expressed protein, respectively.
This is a prospective randomized controlled trial where quality of life and the effectiveness of treatment will be evaluated in 80 patients with confirmed unilateral primary aldosteronism ,randomly assigned to be either treated surgically with unilateral adrenalectomy or to receive medical treatment with eplerenone.
This is a single center, prospective, observational study to explore and evaluate the differences on cognitive function and brain function by functional-MRI in autonomous cortisol secretion patients, and the different treatments methods on the cognitive function and brain function in patients with autonomous cortisol secretion
Adrenal incidentalomas (AIs) are commonly encountered in transsection imaging which purpose not for suspected adrenal disease. However, part of AIs in patients is associated with Stroke. Stroke is a diseases which could cause of disability and death worldwide. In clinical practice, detailed information about the association between stroke and AIs is not available. In this study, the investigators aimed to investigate the risk for disability and death in the large group of stroke patients with AIs.
