Brief Summary: OBJECTIVES I Determine the prevalence of glucocorticoid-remediable aldosteronism GRA in various hypertensive populations and screen at risk members of GRA pedigrees

II Investigate other factors regulating blood pressure in GRA environmental genetically determined factors

III Investigate renal and hormonal mechanisms regulating potassium homeostasis in GRA

IV Describe clinical phenotype of GRA patients V Prospectively screen GRA-affected patients with MRI angiography for intracranial aneurysm
Detailed Description: PROTOCOL OUTLINE

Patients are screened for high blood pressure suppressed plasma renin activity level and low potassium levels Urine is collected for a 24 hour period Blood specimen is collected for molecular biologic evaluation for the presence of the chimeric gene diagnostic of GRA Any history of cardiovascular events is recorded
