SUSPUP (serum sodium to urinary sodium to serum potassium to urinary potassium) and SUSPPUP (serum sodium to urinary sodium to serum potassium to urinary potassium)2 are calculated structure parameters of the Renin–angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). They have been developed to support screening for primary or secondary aldosteronism[1][2].

Physiological principle

The steroid hormone aldosterone stimulates the reabsorption of sodium and the excretion of potassium in the distal tubuli and the collecting tubes of the kidneys. Calculating SUSPUP and/or SUSPPUP helps to determine the intensity of mineralocorticoid signaling.

Preconditions of testing

Sodium and potassium concentration have to be determined in serum and spot urine probes that have been obtained simultaneously or in a short intervals.

Calculation

SUSPUP = [Na+]Serum / [Na+]Urine / [K+]Serum / [K+]Urine

SUSPPUP = [Na+]Serum / [Na+]Urine / [K+]Serum2 / [K+]Urine

Interpretation

Reference ranges are 3.6–22.6 for SUSPUP and 0.6–5.3 for SUSPPUP[1].

Increased values support the hypothesis of increased mineralocorticoid stimulation of the distal tubules and collecting tubes, i.e. in cases of hyperaldosteronism[3]. While these parameters hava a high sensitivity for screening purposes their specificity may be inferior compared to aldosteron-renin ratio (ARR) and potassium concentrations[4].

Both parameters may also be elevated in syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion (SIADH), probably reflecting a compensatory mechanism, where the organism tries to maintain serum sodium concentrations by means of increased renin and/or aldosterone secretion[5].
