Is It Possible to Screen for Primary Aldosteronism Effectively in Primary Care?
ABSTRACT Objective Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the commonest secondary cause of hypertension but case‐detection remains a challenge. Screening is usually performed in secondary care using an aldosterone:renin ratio (ARR) measurement. Here, we describe the outcomes of screening in primary care, in Oxfordshire, UK.

Clinical Significance of Skeletal Fat‐to‐Muscle Ratio in Idiopathic Hyperaldosteronism
ABSTRACT Objective The objective of this study is to evaluate the correlation between the fat‐to‐muscle ratio (FMR) and insulin resistance (IR) with aldosterone production among patients with idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA). Methods Patients with primary aldosteronism were screened from those with secondary hypertension and then subtyped via ...
