Abstract:Context
Patients with adrenal hormone excess demonstrate increased cardiovascular risk and mortality.
Objective
We aimed to determine the impact of adrenal disorders on the inflammation marker GlycA, total branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), ketone bodies and the gut microbiome-derived metabolites trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) and betaine.
