Low-renin hypertension despite the use of ACE inhibitors or ARBs is almost certainly a form of primary aldosteronism. Thrilled to know that our group's work is the featured article in this month's issue of hypertension ! https://t.co/aUE6mZtf9k @AnandVaidya17 @JeniferBrown

Confirmatory testing (aldosterone suppression testing) for primary aldosteronism: not reliable, or reproducible, for diagnosis or predicting lateralization. Sensitivity at the expense of specificity, and vice-versa. Time to simplify the process https://t.co/vwjCXH5Nlw

Our new data on subclinical PA and MACE is out in Circulation! For the first time, we show that renin-independant aldosterone production is associated with an increased risk of MACE independently of BP, in people mostly normotensive with low CV risk. https://t.co/d1yBjfUQkY
