ABSTRACT
Plasma aldosterene/renin ratio (ARR) is a sensitive screening test and parameter for primary aldosteronism(PA).The use of ARR leads to a marked increase in the detection rate of PA in the hypertensive population.However,ARR remains a nonstandardized test,and the cutoff value of ARR used in the different studies is varied.Further and systematical studies are needed to improve the accuracy of the test.
