Serum Aldosterone Is Related to Left Ventricular Geometry and Function in Young Adults with Never-Treated Primary Hypertension.

Our findings may indicate that in young patients with never-treated HT, aldosterone significantly contributes to changes in LV geometry and functional impairment through its pro-hypertrophic and myocardial fibrosis effects beyond blood pressure.
