Key Points

The study aims to assess the relationship between aldosterone excess and hematological parameters in hypertensive patients.
Retrospective analysis of 169 hypertensive patients screened for primary aldosteronism from January 2021 to December 2023.
Patients were divided based on plasma aldosterone concentration thresholds of ≥15 ng/dL and ≥30 ng/dL.
Correlation analysis, multivariate linear regression, and ROC curve analysis were used to evaluate relationships.
Platelet count was significantly higher in both PAC groups (p = 0.041 and p < 0.001).
In multivariate regression, platelet count (p = 0.001), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (p = 0.012), and systemic immune-inflammation index (p = 0.044) remained independently associated with PAC.
ROC analysis revealed a significant pattern for platelet count at PAC ≥30 ng/dL (AUC = 0.727; p = 0.001).
