Table 3. Logistic regression analysis of independent variables affecting the presence of silent brain infarction in primary aldosteronism patients.

Variables
Dependent	Independent	Adjusted OR (95% CI)	P value
SBI	Tissue BOT	0.73 (0.45–0.99)	0.043*
	SBP	1.04 (0.99–1.11)	0.131
	eGFR	0.99 (0.93–1.06)	0.872
	PRA	0.16 (0.00–1.34)	0.187
	PAC	1.10 (1.00–1.23)	0.063
	K	0.47 (0.05–4.26)	0.498
	HDL-C	0.95 (0.87–1.03)	0.215
	U-aldosterone	0.97 (0.81–1.12)	0.665

SBP = systolic blood pressure, U = urinary

PRA = plasma renin activity, SBI = silent brain infarction,

HDL-C = high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, PAC = plasma aldosterone concentration,

BOT = blowout time, eGFR = estimated glomerular filtration rate,

OR: odds ratio, CI: confidence interval.
