摘要

The predictive value of plasma renin measurement depends on both the quality of the classification of the investigated events and that of plasma renin measurement. Although all-cause death may be the most robust event and potentially devoid of risk of error, in most observational studies and trials it usually fails to give clear results simply because of inadequate statistical power.
