摘要

This study is to determine peripheral sample collection timing impact on selectivity index (SI) and success of unstimulated adrenal venous sampling (AVS) for primary aldosteronism (PA) subtyping. In this study, a retrospective discovery and a prospective validation arm were conducted. 74 patients undergoing AVS before and after-ACTH stimulation were reviewed. Discovery dataset was divided into 1) “pre” group, peripherals collected 30-min before AVS and 2) “post” group, peripherals collected 1-min after AVS. SIs were calculated using 30-min-pre and 1-min-post values. Patients with samples having SIs < 2 and SIs ≥ 5 on before and after-ACTH were classified as false negative and those with SI ≥ 2 and SI ≥ 5 on before and after-ACTH as true positive. Data was analyzed using Chi-squared test. For validation, 27 patients were enrolled prospectively as a paired group. In each, two peripherals were collected approximately 30 min before and 1 min after AVS. Cortisol was compared using Wilcoxon matched-pair signed rank test. Retrospectively, 38% of “30 min-pre” patients had SI < 2 in right adrenals, compared to 14% in “1 min-post” patients (P = 0.007). For the left, 45.9% of “30 min pre” patients had SIs < 2 compared to 13.5% in “1 min-post” patients, (P = 0.002). Prospectively, peripheral cortisol 1 min post decreased by 28% compared to 30-min pre (median, 6.4 to 4.6 μmol/L; P < 0.001). SIs increased 40% bilaterally (P < 0.001). In conclusion, in unstimulated AVS, collecting peripheral samples after sampling the adrenal veins is more likely to give more accurate SI than before sampling the adrenal veins.
