Sex Differences in Cardiac Remodeling and Dysfunction in Primary Aldosteronism

Sex-specific differences in cardiac remodeling and diastolic function were observed in patients with primary aldosteronism. Despite lower baseline LVMI, women exhibited a more adverse cardiac phenotype, with a higher prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy and worse diastolic function. Following aldosterone-targeted therapies, structural regression was similar between sexes, whereas diastolic function improved to a lesser extent in women.
