First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This completed study looked at 500 adults hospitalized with dangerously high blood pressure. Researchers measured levels of the hormone aldosterone to see if it relates to how long patients stay in the hospital or if they have complications. The goal was to better understand the condition, not to test a new treatment.
