From: Aldosterone and glomerular filtration – observations in the general population
Adjusted mean eGFR according to sex-specific tertiles of PAC or ARR in 1921 SHIP-1 participants. PAC, plasma aldosterone concentration; ARR, aldosterone-to-renin ratio. The multivariable analysis of variance models were adjusted for age, sex, waist circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, diabetes mellitus, smoking status, serum triglyceride concentrations, time of blood sampling, and additionally plasma renin concentration in models with PAC or ARR as independent variables. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated according to the four-variable Modification of Diet in Renal Diseases formula.
