JVIR Letter: Contralateral Suppression Indices vs. Outcome-Based Standards in Primary Aldosteronism

A letter in JVIR argues that contralateral suppression indices for primary aldosteronism should be replaced by outcome-based reference standards to improve patient selection for adrenalectomy.

• Design: Letter to the Editor in JVIR (no original study data).
• Core argument: Relying solely on contralateral suppression indices may be insufficient; outcome-based standards (e.g., clinical cure of hypertension) are needed for adrenal vein sampling interpretation.
• Limitation: Commentary only—no new patient data or external validation.
