In this episode, ‘Hypercortisolism Insights from MOMENTUM and CATALYST Trials,’ the panelists explore the design, findings, and clinical implications of the MOMENTUM and CATALYST studies and discuss how emerging evidence is reshaping the understanding of hypercortisolism in resistant hypertension and difficult-to-control type 2 diabetes.

This episode, titled ‘Guidelines and Barriers to Hypercortisolism Screening in Cardiology,’ features panelists discussing how recent clinical evidence and updated expert recommendations may influence the recognition and screening of hypercortisolism in patients with resistant hypertension and cardiovascular disease.

In, ‘Hypercortisolism as a Driver of Hypertension and Cardiovascular Risk’, panelists will continue their discussion on hypercortisolism and highlight how cortisol excess can contribute to hypertension and cardiovascular risk even in the absence of classic Cushing syndrome features. They also explore emerging evidence linking hypercortisolism to adverse cardiometabolic outcomes and the implications for cardiovascular practice.

In this episode, ‘The Challenge of Resistant Hypertension,’ features the panelists discussing persistent barriers to blood pressure control, evolving hypertension management strategies, and the importance of recognizing secondary causes of resistant hypertension. They also explore how missed opportunities for diagnosis may contribute to ongoing cardiovascular risk in clinical practice.
