Urinary Aldosterone-to-active-renin Ratio: A Useful Tool for Predicting Resolution of Hypertension After Adrenalectomy in Patients With Aldosterone-producing Adenomas. Abstract Text:

BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to determine the preoperative clinical and biological factors that predict the clinical outcomes after surgery, in subjects with aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs).MethodsFifty-eight patients (mean age 52 +/- 11 years) with APA were followed up for 43 +/- 13 months after they had undergone unilateral adrenalectomy. The subjects were classified as "cured" (n = 23) if the blood pressure (BP) was <140/90 mm Hg without postoperative medication, "normalized" (n = 20) if BP was <140/90 mm Hg with antihypertensive therapy, and "uncontrolled" (n = 15) if a BP of
