🗑
what are the stenotic defects   pulmonary, aortic, and aortic coarctation  
🗑
what are the atresias   Pulmonary, aortic and hypoplastic Left heart

🗑
GRA = Glucocorticoid remediable aldosteronism (HTN)   auto dominant chromosome 8q results in ectopic aldosterone production via ACTH  
🗑
AME - apparent mineralcorticoid excess (HTN)   Autosomal recessive chromosome 16q inactivating mutation of B hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase to there is more cortisol stimulating the mineralcorticoid receptor  
🗑
