Abstract
Context
No consensus exists for optimization of mineralocorticoid therapy in patients with primary adrenal insufficiency.
Objective
To explore the relationship between mineralocorticoid (MC) replacement dose, plasma renin concentration (PRC), and clinically important variables to determine which are most helpful in guiding MC dose titration in primary adrenal insufficiency.
Design
Observational, retrospective, longitudinal analysis.
Patients
A total of 280 patients (with 984 clinical visits and plasma renin measurements) with primary adrenal insufficiency were recruited from local databases and the international congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) registry (www.i-cah.org). Thirty-seven patients were excluded from the final analysis due to incomplete assessment. Data from 204 patients with salt-wasting CAH (149 adults and 55 children) and 39 adult patients with Addison disease (AD) were analysed.
Main outcome measures
PRC, electrolytes, blood pressure (BP), and anthropometric parameters were used to predi...
