Clinical Trial Summary

collaborative work within 2 hospitals at the CHU of Caen, at the CHRU of Lille, concerning the evaluation of the biological markers of primary hyperaldosteronism (PAH) with the dosage of aldosterone in LC -MS/MS, which is performed in both centers, with two different techniques. The main objective is to define the range of Aldosterone concentrations in LC MS/MS, of renin in an automated method, in populations of healthy volunteers, essential hypertensives, and hypertensives with primary hyperaldosteronism. , in order to establish a threshold for the screening of PAH by the RAR, and for the confirmation of PAH by a dynamic test with an Aldosterone threshold post salt load test.

Primary	Aldosterone values in LC-MS/MS (and renin) and RAR calculation and calculation of an RAR threshold for PAH screening which differentiates between essential hypertension and PAH.	Define the range of concentrations of Aldosterone in LC MS/MS, of renin in an automated immunological method with calculation of the RAR, in populations of healthy volunteers, essential hypertensives, and hypertensives with primary hyperaldosteronism , in order to establish a threshold for the detection of PAH by the RAR, and for the confirmation of PAH by a dynamic test of confirmation by Aldosterone.	baseline
