Published in 2018 at "Journal of Hypertension"

DOI: 10.1097/hjh.0000000000001735

Abstract: Background: Primary aldosteronism is affecting about 10% of hypertensive patients. Primary aldosteronism should be diagnosed by screening tests based on plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) and aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR), followed by confirmatory test. The cutoff values… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Endocrine journal"

DOI: 10.1507/endocrj.ej22-0585

Abstract: In Japan, the standard method for measuring plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) for primary aldosteronism (PA) diagnosis was changed from radioimmunoassay (RIA) to a novel chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA). The purpose of this study is to… read more here.
