Association of plasma aldosterone concentration with peripheral artery disease in hypertensive patients: insights from a large cross-sectional analysis
This study establishes a non-linear relationship between PAC and the prevalence of PAD in hypertensive patients, with a critical threshold at 17.00 ng/dl. These findings underscore the importance of aldosterone homeostasis in vascular health and the need for further large-scale, prospective studies to validate these results and explore their clinical implications.
