Intraindividual Variability of Aldosterone Concentrations in Primary Aldosteronism Implications for Case Detection

Nicholas Yozamp et al.

Summary: Patients with primary aldosteronism exhibit high variability in aldosterone concentrations and aldosterone-to-renin ratios, with many screening values falling below conventionally accepted diagnostic thresholds. By recalibrating the definition of a positive screen to include more liberal thresholds for aldosterone and the aldosterone-to-renin ratio, the diagnostic yield for primary aldosteronism may be substantially increased.

Confounders of the aldosterone-to-renin ratio when used as a screening test in hypertensive patients: A critical analysis of the literature

Gregory P. Veldhuizen et al.

Summary: The aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR) is a common screening test for primary aldosteronism in hypertensives. However, there are many factors which could confound the ARR test result and reduce the accuracy of this test. Our analysis revealed that sex, age, posture, and sodium-intake influence the ARR, whereas assay techniques do not. Race and body mass index have an uncertain effect on the ARR. We conclude that several factors can affect the ARR. Not taking these factors into account could lead to misinterpretation of the ARR.
