Diurnal blood pressure pattern in patients with primary aldosteronism.

abstract：:It has recently been suggested that the classical routine of glucocorticoid administration before and after transsphenoidal surgery (TSS) in Cushing's disease (CD) patients may not be necessary, since it is likely that peritumoral normal corticotrophs are not completely suppressed during this period. We compared the d...
