Salt Reduction to Prevent Hypertension and Cardiovascular Disease: JACC State-of-the-Art Review
2020, Journal of the American College of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :Setting aside the problematic trials, the only interventional evidence we are left with on CVD is the long-term follow-up of participants who previously took part in salt-reduction trials (74,75). Pooling their results showed that salt reduction has a significant beneficial effect, with a 2.5 g/day reduction being associated with a 20% reduction in CVD events (Figure 5) (54,74,76–80). These findings provide further evidence in favor of salt reduction as a preventive public health measure against CVD.
Pathophysiological Links Between Diabetes and Blood Pressure
2018, Canadian Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :The lack of renal adaptation in excreting the excess sodium leads to increased extracellular fluid volume, resulting in increased peripheral vascular resistance and hypertension.7 Interventional studies have shown the importance of sodium reduction for the treatment of hypertension in subjects with and without diabetes.8 However, results from epidemiological studies that examined the association between sodium intake and blood pressure (BP) in different populations have been controversial.
Clinical Update on Nursing Home Medicine: 2012
2012, Journal of the American Medical Directors AssociationCitation Excerpt :A meta-analysis of trials of dietary sodium reduction longer than 6 months (removing one heart failure trial which included a very large, fixed dose of furosemide)29 found a relative risk of 0.8 (.64–.99) for CVD events in the lower sodium arm. The intervention arms did not achieve the target sodium goals but ranged from 2.3 gm sodium in the TONE22 to about 3.5 gm sodium in the small trial by Morgan.30,31 Neither the DASH, TONE, nor the Trial of Hypertension Prevention trials enrolled a substantial number of very old adults; none had dementia or were living in nursing homes.
