States of Aldosterone Deficiency or Pseudodeficiency,neral homeostasis. This chapter will review the pathophysiology and treatment of disorders due to aldosterone deficiency and pseudodeficiency in the context of our current understanding of the physiologic effects of mineralocorticoid hormones, summarized in Section I.

Book 1987he molecular basis of biologic communication has led to the discovery of a growing number of clinical syndromes, as well as to the realization that phenotypically similar diseases may have radically different pathogenetic mechanisms and thus may require radically different therapeutic strata­ gems.

Euthyroid Hyperthyroxinemia,increased in thyrotoxicosis and usually decreased in hypothyroidism. However, since T. is tightly bound to plasma proteins in the circulation, alterations in the serum-binding proteins (particularly thyroxine-binding globulin-TBG) may cause corresponding alterations in the total T. concentration (Fi

Pseudohypoparathyroidism: Target Organ Resistance to Parathyroid Hormone and Other Metabolic Defecthormone (PTH). The biochemical expressions of PTH resistance include hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and increased circulating levels of PTH appropriate to the degree and duration of hypocalcemia. Altered vitamin D metabolism may be reflected by low circulating levels of l,25(OH).D.. These biochemi

Syndromes of Vitamin D Resistance, osteomalacia, persistent problems in the smoke-ladened skies and dank sweat shops of the industrialized world of Western Europe and America, rapidly declined over the decade following this discovery. Importation of cod liver oil rapidly rose, and its consumption became a wintertime ritual of youth.
