Interrelations among blood pressure, blood volume, plasma renin activity and urinary catecholamines in benign essential hypertension.
Plasma renin activity, circulatory volume, and urinary catecholamines do not play major roles in maintaining benign essential hypertension, with low PRA reflecting diminished adrenergic activity and high PRA potentially due to hypovolemia from high blood pressure-induced sodium diuresis.

Which diuretic to use?
The choice of diuretic depends on the patient's condition and complications, with thiazide group diuretics being the main cause of hypokalemia and metabolic upsets.
