About this trial

We intends to conduct a series of original clinical research about PA, and establish a large cohort of PA and essential hypertension patients with long-term follow-up of cardiovascular events, renal end points etc. We will establish a large sample of blood, urine, adrenal tissue of the subjects, and the genomics,metabonomics, proteomics database, to explore the mechanism of the PA and target organ damage, risk factors, diagnostic methods and biomarkers.
