Abstract: 目的：本研究通过选取原发性醛固酮增多症(PA)患者与原发性高血压(EH)患者的各项化验指标进行比较，探讨醛固酮过量对骨代谢的影响，分析PA患者各项指标与骨代谢标志物的相关性，为PA继发的骨质疏松精准治疗提供依据，以期改善PA患者的预后及生活质量。方法：回顾性收集2021.01~2025.01就诊于青岛大学附属医院诊断的PA患者255例，EH患者232例，收集患者的年龄、性别、身体质量指数(Body Mass Index, BMI)、最高收缩压、最高舒张压以及骨代谢标志物、性激素指标、肾素–血管紧张素–醛固酮系统(Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, RAAS)指标、血脂、电解质指标进行统计学对比，为了尽量减少更年期、绝经期的影响，按照年龄分层将PA组与EH组分别分为β特殊序列(collagen type I carboxy-terminal telopeptide β-specific sequence, β-CTX)、立位血浆醛固酮(plasma aldosterone concentration, PAC)、ARR显著高于EH组(P Purpose: This study compared various laboratory parameters between primary aldosteronism (PA) patients and essential hypertension (EH) patients, explored the effects of aldosterone excess on bone metabolism, analyzed the correlations between PA-related indicators and bone metabolism markers, and provided a basis for precision treatment of osteoporosis secondary to PA to improve the prognosis and quality of life of PA patients. Methods: This study retrospectively collected 255 primary aldosteronism (PA) patients and 232 essential hypertension (EH) patients diagnosed at Qingdao University Affiliated Hospital between January 2021 and January 2025. The collected data included age, gender, BMI, maximum systolic blood pressure, maximum diastolic blood pressure, bone metabolism markers, sex hormone indices, RAAS system parameters, blood lipids, and electrolyte parameters for statistical comparison. To minimize menopausal and postmenopausal influences, both PA and EH groups were stratified into β-CTX, PAC, and ARR were significantly higher in the PA group compared to the EH group (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.001), while PRA, serum calcium, serum potassium, and PINP were significantly lower (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.01). After age stratification, in the <60 years group, PA patients showed significantly higher PAC, ARR, PTH, maximum systolic blood pressure, and osteocalcin compared to EH patients (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.05, P < 0.01), and significantly lower serum potassium, serum calcium, and PRA (P < 0.01, P < 0.001, P < 0.001). In the ≥60 years group, PA patients had significantly higher ARR, PTH, and osteocalcin (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.01), and significantly lower serum potassium, serum calcium, and PRA (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.001). Correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation between PAC and PTH (r = 0.048, P = 0.035). Conclusion: The study found that bone metabolism markers were significantly higher in PA patients compared to EH patients, and PAC was positively correlated with PTH. Hyperthyroidism secondary to PA is associated with bone loss. Early diagnosis and treatment of patients with PA and vitamin D supplementation are essential for the prevention of secondary osteoporosis.
