    Aldosterone-secreting adrenal cortical adenoma in an 11-year-old child and collective review of the literature (1994)

    Notes: Abstract We report a rare case of primary hyperaldosteronism in an 11-year-old female patient due to a unilateral adrenal cortical adenoma. The patient presented with hypertension, hypokalaemia and metabolic alkalosis associated with inappropriate kaliuresis. The diagnosis was supported by the following laboratory findings: elevated plasma aldosterone, suppressed plasma renin activity, nonsuppressible aldosterone secretion following saline infusion and absent plasma aldosterone response to ambulation. MRI revealed a 1 cm diameter adrenal tumour on the left side. Even though the NP-59 scintigraphy gave a negative result, laparotomy with left adrenalectomy was performed. Pathological examination confirmed an adenoma in the adrenal cortex. The patient's blood pressure and biochemical laboratory data normalized postoperatively within 2 days. We recommend that in hypertensive children with hypokalaemia and metabolic alkalosis, primary aldosteronism should be considered.

    Influence of heat treatment on the transformation hysteresis of CuAlNiMnTi shape-memory alloys (1993)

    Notes: Abstract The electrical resistance method, metallograph analysis, TEM observation and X-ray diffraction analysis have been employed to investigate the influence of heat treatment on the transformation hysteresis (Af-Ms) of CuAlNiMnTi shape-memory alloys (SMAs). It was found that when the quenching specimens were subjected to ageing treatment, the transformation temperature was decreased and the transformation hysteresis was initially increased, but then tended towards stability; when the quenched specimens were subjected to moderate-temperature treatment at 600
