    Notes: Summary A new inhibitor of adrenocortical secretion, amino-glutethimide (Elipten, CIBA) was used to treat 37 patients with secondary hyperaldosteronism and oedema due to congestive heart failure, cirrhosis of the liver and idiopathic oedema. 32 of the 37 patients responded with a significant sodium diuresis secondary to decreased tubular reabsorption of sodium. Their aldosterone excretion fell significantly after Elipten, and the plasma renin activity showed a significant rise. In 2 of the 5 patients resistant to a combination of Elipten with Lasix, a sodium diuresis followed additional treatment with triamcinolone. A skin rash occurred after Elipten in 1 of the 37 patients. — Elipten may be used with advantage for the treatment of selected patients with secondary hyperaldosteronism and oedema. In some ways it is better than the alternative treatment with spironolactones.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary An intravenous infusion of angiotensin, following its aldosterone-mobilising, pressor and tubular action was used as a test of mineralocorticoid reserve capacity in a similar way as ACTH in the glucocorticoid reserve capacity testing. In 13 patients suffering from Addison's disease and 13 control persons aldosterone and 17-hydroxycorticosteroids (and in some of them vanilmandelic-acid and homovanilicacid) were estimated in urine before and after angiotensin in a drop infusion and the results confronted with the ACTH stimulation test. The aldosterone output was very low in all patients with Addison's disease and was unchanged after angiotensin. In 2 patients there was a dissociation of the response to ACTH and angiotensin, once as a selective hypoaldosteronism, in another case there was an elevation of aldosterone in response to angiotensin but no elevation of the 17-hydroxycorticosteroids after ACTH. The pressor hyporeactivity to angiotensin in Addison's disease and no change in the urinary sodium potassium ratio during the infusion were of diagnostic value too. There is indirect evidence that the pressor reactivity to angiotensin reflects the andogenous renin and angiotensin. A rapid screening test with angiotensin for this purpose is proposed but only in normotensive persons without major risk. The diuretic action of intravenous angiotensin in ascitic cirrhosis of the liver in 8 patients when all diuretics, including spironolactone and triamterene, had failed, was demonstrated. In a further 4 patients who did not respond to angiotensin or spironolactone separately, a profound diuretic response on giving both together was observed. There was no similar diuretic effect in nephrotic oedema. These results were discussed in the light of the newest knowledge about the renin-angiotensin system.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Angiotensin II ist bei intravenöser Infusion als dynamischer Test der mineralotropen NNR-Funktionskapazität geeignet, ähnlich wie ACTH zur Bestimmung der Glucokortikoid-Bildungskapazität. Bei 13 Addison-Kranken und bei 13 Kontrollpersonen wurde die Anwendbarkeit dieses Testes mit Untersuchung von Aldosteron, 17-OH-Kortikoiden geprüft, z.T. auch der Vanillinmandelsäure und Homovanillinsäure im Harn. Bei 2 Kranken wurde eine Dissoziation des ACTH- und des Angiotensin-Testes gefunden, einmal im Sinne eines selektiven Hypoaldosteronismus, das zweitemal mit erhaltener Aldosteronstimulierung, jedoch ohne Reaktion der 17-OH-Kortikoide auf ACTH. Diagnostisch wertvoll ist ferner der Befund einer pressorischen Hyporeaktivität auf Angiotensin beim Hypokortizismus und einer abweichenden Natriumausscheidung im Vergleich zu Kontrollpersonen. Es wurde die Frage der Eignung dieses Testes für eine schnelle Orientierung über das endogene Angiotensin in der Praxis — allerdings nur bei Normotonikern — diskutiert. Weiter wurden günstige Ergebnisse bei der Behandlung aszitischer Lebercirrhosen mit Angiotensin II berichtet, die gegenüber einer diuretischen Therapie resistent waren. Bei Unwirksamkeit dieser Behandlung (ungefähr in 1/3 der Kranken) ließ sich eine deutliche Diurese durch gleichzeitige Applikation von Angiotensin II und Aldactone A erreichen, die beide allein wirkungslos waren. Diese Ergebnisse wurden im Zusammenhang mit der Rolle des Renin-Angiotensin-systems besprochen.

    Notes: Abstract Plasma renin activity and plasma aldosterone were determined by radioimmunoassay methods in 20 patients in oliguric phase, in 11 patients in polyuric phase and in 7 patients in convalescent phase of acute renal failure of various origin. The oliguric phase of acute renal failure was characterized by significant increase of plasma renin activity and plasma aldosterone. There was no direct dependence between them. Direct dependence was found between plasma aldosterone and serum potassium in the oliguric phase of acute renal failure, indirect dependence between plasma aldosterone and serum sodium was found before as well as after haemodialysis. These findings prove a direct influence of hyperkalemia and depletion hyponatremia upon aldosterone secretion in the oliguric phase of acute renal failure. Haemodialysis led to a further increase of plasma renin activity caused by ultrafiltration as well as successive dehydration and application of some drugs. The mean value of plasma aldosterone was not significantly changed after haemodialysis. Plasma renin activity decreased very slowly in the polyuric and convalescence phase of acute renal failure, while plasma aldosterone concentration was already in polyuric phase non-significantly different from the control group. There was no direct dependence in the various phases of acute renal failure between plasma renin activity, plasma aldosterone, systolic and diastolic pressure. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system significantly participates in the pathogenesis of acute renal failure in man, but various causes of acute renal failure, different drugs, as well as therapeutic procedures do not make it possible to quantify it in detail. Charcoal haemoperfusion in acute poisonings led only to non-significant increase of plasma renin activity and decrease of plasma aldosterone.
