The accurate and prompt detection of primary aldosteronism in patients with dRHTN has recently gained wide scientific interest, due to the introduction of interventional methods for the management of dRHTN: renal sympathetic denervation and carotid baroreceptor stimulation [9–13]. Patients with primary aldosteronism are not likely to respond to such interventional therapy, and is thus of utmost importance to exclude such patients in clinical studies evaluating the effects of interventional therapy.

2 ng/ml/h and normal aldosterone levels at 7 ng/dl has an elevated ARR of 35, suggesting primary aldosteronism based on ARR despite normal aldosterone levels. 1 ng/ml/h has an elevated ARR of 40 with aldosterone levels at 4 ng/dl, a supernormal value, which actually excludes, rather than being indicative of, primary aldosteronism. It therefore seems obvious that raised aldosterone levels are a sine qua noncriterion when screening for primary aldosteronism; otherwise, clinically unwise paths may be followed.
