Aldosterone levels may serve as an independent prognostic marker for mortality and acute ischemic events in stable CAD patients without heart failure or recent MI.

Resumen

Our results demonstrate that, in patients with CAD but without heart failure or acute MI, the level of aldosterone is strongly and independently associated with mortality and the occurrence of acute ischaemic events.
