Atrial and brain natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP, respectively) are cardiac hormones with natriuretic and vasodilator actions. The present study was carried out to determine the natriuretic peptide that is closely related to cardiac load and volume retention in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA).
