A two-month old child was admitted to hospital after failure to thrive. The “boy”, whose external genitalia were ambiguous, was found to have elevated blood pressure, but no dehydration. The following measurements were made on a plasma sample taken on admission: Variable Result Reference Range Urea (mM) 6.2 2.5 - 7.0 Creatinine (μ�M) 95 60 - 120 Glucose (mM) 4.3 3.5 - 5.5. (fasting) Na+ (mM) 170 134 -147 K+ (mM) 2.8 3.5 - 5.0 11 -deoxycortisol (nM) 57 <10 Deoxycorticosterone (nM) 1.3 <0.4 Cortisol (nM) 22 138 - 690 Testosterone (nM) 7.4 0.5 -3.2 (adult female) 5 - 40 (adult male) The concentrations of progesterone, 17-hydroxyprogesterone and ∆4-androstenedione were also increased above the reference range. A chromosome analysis showed that the child was a genotypic female (46, XX karyotype). A consultant obstetrician initially diagnosed congenital adrenal hyperplasia, however they were confused by the…

In this case, a 72-year-old man with a medical history that includes hypertension, type 2 diabetes, coronary artery disease with stent implantation, and congestive heart failure is hospitalized for dyspnea while at rest. Despite salt restriction and diuretics, he continued to have swelling in his legs for four weeks. His L ejection fraction (EF) is 40 percent, which is excellent. Humalog (75/25) 20 units QD, furosemide 40 mg BID, metolazone 2.5 mg QD, spironolactone 12.5 mg QD, carvedilol 12.5 mg BID, ramipril 10 mg QD, atorvastatin 40 mg QD, clopidogrel 75 mg QD, and aspirin 81 mg QD are among the medications prescribed. The patient's blood pressure was 100/60 mmHg, his pulse was 102 beats/min, he had JVD, crackles, an S3, a positive hepatojugular reflex, and pitting edema that reached his knees. Na+ concentrations were 134 mEq/L, K+ concentrations were 3.8 mEq/L, Cl concentrations were 90 mEq/L, HCO3 concentrations were 28 mEq/L, BUN concentrations were 46 mg/dL, creatinine…
