Abstract
Patients with aldosteronism had relative estimated hyperfiltration than patients with EH. Calculation of eGFR may increase the specificity in identifying patients with PA. Our findings demonstrate the correlation of serum potassium and renin with estimated hyperfiltration in PA and their relationship to kidney damage. These results provide a high priority for future renal protective strategies and methods for the early diagnosis and prompt treatment of PA.
