Quick answer
The aldosterone-to-renin ratio test measures aldosterone and renin in the same blood sample and compares them. Aldosterone helps regulate sodium, potassium, and blood pressure, while renin is the enzyme that normally controls aldosterone release. When aldosterone is high while renin stays low, the pattern can point to a hormonal cause of hypertension that deserves further evaluation.
What this test measures
Aldosterone is produced by the adrenal glands and acts on the kidneys to retain sodium and excrete potassium, which raises blood pressure. Renin, made by the kidneys, is part of the system that stimulates aldosterone when blood pressure or sodium levels fall. The ratio between the two hormones reveals whether aldosterone production is behaving appropriately for the body's signals.
The test is most often requested for people whose blood pressure remains high despite multiple therapies, who have low potassium, or who have an adrenal nodule discovered on imaging. Because aldosterone and renin fluctuate with posture, time of day, and other factors, laboratories standardize collection conditions and may repeat abnormal results.
An elevated ratio is a screening finding, not a diagnosis. Confirmatory testing is usually required before a treatment plan is made. Clinicians also consider medications, potassium levels, and kidney function because all of these can influence aldosterone and renin measurements.
