Markers of potassium homeostasis in salt losing tubulopathies- associations with hyperaldosteronism and hypomagnesemia

Abstract Background Renal loss of potassium (K+) and magnesium (Mg2+) in salt losing tubulopathies (SLT) leads to significantly reduced Quality of Life (QoL) and higher risks of cardiac arrhythmia.
