    Primary aldosteronism (PA) often coexists with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), increasing cardiometabolic risk.

  • 2

    This study analyzed gut microbiome and metabolomic profiles in 29 adults with PA stratified by OSA severity.

  • 3

    Global gut microbial diversity did not show significant differences across OSA severity groups, despite some exploratory associations.

  • 4

    Fecal metabolomic profiling revealed nominal differences related to AHI, but no significant metabolites after correction.

  • 5

    Findings suggest that gut microbiome heterogeneity in PA with OSA is reflected more by specific signals than by overall diversity.
