- Bookedited by Bonnie S. LeRoy, Patricia McCarthy Veach, Nancy P. Callanan.Summary: "Rapid increases in tests and technologies, media attention, and the expansion of genetic medicine and testing beyond conditions that are exclusively genetic in nature to common chronic illnesses with both genetic and environmental components (e.g., diabetes, heart disease, cancer), have raised demand for genetic counselling services and changing the scope of practice. Genetic counselors help individuals and families understand complex medical information, including diagnosis, prognosis, management options, risk, and heredity issues. They aid patients in decision-making while respecting ethical, familial, and cultural standards"-- Provided by publisher.

Amiloride (40 mg/day) was given to nineteen patients with primary hyperaldosteronism. There were significant falls in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, in total exchangeable sodium and in serum sodium and bicarbonate, while total exchangeable potassium, total body potassium, serum potassium, chloride and urea, plasma renin, angiotensin II and aldosterone all increased significantly. Amiloride was effective in reducing the blood pressure in patients with and without adrenocortical adenoma. No carry-over effect was seen on withdrawing amiloride. Similar changes were associated with amiloride treatment in five patients with essential hypertension; hyperkalaemia was not observed. 2. Only negligible side effects were encountered in the entire series of 24 patients.
