The authors examined the plasma renin activity (PRA), serum uric acid and creatinine in 53 patients with essential hypertension (EH). They recorded low renin EH in 28%, normorenin EH in 53% and high-renin EH in 19% of the hypertensive patients. Assessment of basal PRA levels does not suffice for the classification of EH because the PRA response after stimulation is not related to its basal values. The authors found significantly higher levels of serum creatinine in low-renin EH. They did not confirm a relationship between PRA and the uric acid serum level in any form of EH.
