yes, same. as seen in this study: www.acpjournals.org/doi/abs/10.7...

Work smarter, not harder!

A low renin with concurrent use of ACEi/ARB is almost certainly some shade of Primary Aldosteronism.

Either way, aldosterone-directed therapy is very likely to provide major clinical benefits

Do patients want to be screened for primary aldosteronism: YES

How much PA can be identified with a direct-to-patient approach: A LOT

Can this approach be implemented nationwide: YES

We report detailed human studies to show that a substantial proportion of normotensive people exhibit phenotypic signatures of primary aldosteronism, providing mechanistic implications for the pathogenesis of hypertension and subsequent therapy www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/...
