Twenty-Four-Hour Urinary Aldosterone Predicts Inappropriate Left Ventricular Mass Index in Patients with Primary Aldosteronism

Figure 1

ROC curve: to predict the presence of LVH in patients with primary aldosteronism: the ROC AUC of log-transformed 24 hr urinary aldosterone is larger than that of PAC or ARR. (ROC AUC for log-transformed urine aldosterone: 0.701 (95% CI 0.601–0.801), for PAC: 0.568 (95% CI 0.456–0.68), for plasma aldosterone to renin activity ratio: 0.56 (0.445–0.675),    , compared with log-transformed urine aldosterone).
