Salt Consumption

Renal resistive index (RRI) has been associated with adverse renal and cardiovascular outcomes. Although traditionally considered a marker of intrinsic renal damage, RRI could also reflect systemic vascular dysfunction. As sodium intake was linked to alterations in vascular properties, we wished to characterize the association of salt consumption with RRI in the general adult population. Participants were recruited in a population-based study in Switzerland. RRI was measured by ultrasound in 3 segmental arteries. Sodium intake (UNa; mmol/24 h) was estimated on 24-hour urine samples. Carotido-femoral pulse wave velocity was obtained by applanation tonometry. Mixed multivariate regression models were used with RRI or pulse wave velocity as independent variables and UNa as dependent variable, adjusting for possible confounders. We included 1002 patients in the analyses with 528 (52.7%) women and mean age of 47.2±17.4. Mean values of UNa and RRI were 141.8±61.1 mmol/24 h and 63.8±5.5%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, UNa was positively associated with RRI ( P =0.002) but not with pulse wave velocity ( P =0.344). Plasma renin activity and aldosterone did not modify the relationship between UNa and RRI ( P =0.087 for interaction). UNa/urinary potassium ratio was positively associated with pulse wave velocity ≥12 m/s ( P =0.033). Our results suggest that dietary salt consumption has a direct impact on renal hemodynamic in the adult general population. Alterations in vascular properties likely explain those findings, but inadequate renal vaso-motor response is also possible. Sodium intake could thus potentially be linked to underlying structural systemic damages affecting this population.

In medical practice the reference values of arterial stiffness came from multicenter registries obtained in Asia, USA, Australia and Europe. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the gold standard method for arterial stiffness quantification; however, in South America, there are few population-based studies. In this research PWV was measured in healthy asymptomatic and normotensive subjects without history of hypertension in first-degree relatives. Normal PWV and the 95% confidence intervals values were obtained in 780 subjects (39.8 ± 18.5 years) divided into 7 age groups (10–98 years). The mean PWV found was 6.84 m/s ± 1.65. PWV increases linearly with aging with a high degree of correlation (r2=0.61;P<0.05) with low dispersion in younger subjects. PWV progressively increases 6–8% with each decade of life; this tendency is more pronounced after 50 years. A significant increase of PWV over 50 years was demonstrated. This is the first population-based study from urban and rural people of Argentina that provides normal values of the PWV in healthy, normotensive subjects without family history of hypertension. Moreover, the age dependence of PWV values was confirmed.Corrigendum to “Reference Values of Pulse Wave Velocity in Healthy People from an Urban and Rural Argentinean Population”

Abstract Background Aortic stiffness, assessed through pulse wave velocity (PWV), is an independent predictor for cardiovascular disease risk. However, the scarce availability of normal and reference values for cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) based PWV is limiting clinical implementation. The aim of this study was to determine normal and reference values for CMR assessed PWV in the general population. Methods From the 2,484 participants of the Netherlands Epidemiology of Obesity (NEO) study that have available CMR-PWV data, 1,394 participants free from cardiovasculard disease, smokers or treatment for diabetes, hypertension or dyslipidaemia were selected (45–65 years, 51% female). Participants were divided into sex, age and blood pressure (BP) subgroups. Normal values were specified for participants with a BP < 130/80 mmHg and reference values for elevated BP subgroups (≥ 130/80 and < 140/90 mmHg; and ≥ 140/90 mmHg). Differences between groups were tested with independent samples t-test or ANOVA. Due to an oversampling of obese individuals in this study, PWV values are based on a weighted analysis making them representative of the general population. Results Normal mean PWV was 6.0 m/s [95% CI 5.8–6.1]. PWV increased with advancing age and BP categories (both p < 0.001). There was no difference between sex in normal PWV, however in the BP > 140/90 mmHg women had a higher PWV (p = 0.005). The interpercentile ranges were smaller for participants < 55 years old compared to participants ≥ 55 years, indicating an increasing variability of PWV with age. PWV upper limits were particularly elevated in participants ≥ 55 years old in the high blood pressure subgroups. Conclusion This study provides normal and reference values for CMR-assessed PWV per sex, age and blood pressure category in the general population.
