The Association between eGFR and the Aldosterone-to-Renin Ratio and Its Effect on Screening for Primary Aldosteronism.

Conclusions: Unsuppressed renin and lower ARR levels were associated with decreased eGFR in patients with primary aldosteronism. Diagnostic criteria of ARR by stratified eGFR may be an optimal strategy for the screening of primary aldosteronism. PMID: 32089681 [PubMed]
