Dietary Salt Intake

Background: Healthy dietary practice is an important lifestyle modification and one of the key adjuncts to pharmacotherapy in management of hypertension. A modest reduction in salt intake of 5 gm/day lowered blood pressure by 7/4 mmHg diastolic in hypertensive patients. Despite knowledge about the ill consequences, many people continue to consume high levels of salt in their diet. To motivate people to reduce salt in their diet, a solid understanding of barriers encountered by those under salt reduction recommendation is necessary. Hence, this study was conducted with the aim of identifying the barriers to dietary salt reduction among hypertensive patients.Methods: A community based cross sectional study was conducted on a sample of 356 hypertensive patients in field practice areas (urban and rural) in Department of Community Medicine, JNMC, AMU, Aligarh. A pretested semi-structured questionnaire was used for the study. Compliance to dietary salt intake was assessed by calculating average salt intake per person per day. The tenets of health belief model were used to examine the key determinants of human behavior. Analysis was done by using correlation, proportions, chi-square and multiple linear regression.Results: 31.4% of the participants took salt <5 gm per day. A significant association was noticed with area, religion, social class, family size, perceived benefits and perceived susceptibility. A significant positive correlation was seen with total adherence score and family size.Conclusions: A lot of barriers hinder the compliance to dietary salt reduction. Health Education stressing the role of salt reduction in control of blood pressure is recommended.

The Relationship

Health literacy has been recognized as a significant social determinant of health, defined as the ability to access, understand, appraise, and apply health-related information across healthcare, disease prevention, and health promotion. This systematic review aims to understand the relationship between health literacy, blood pressure, and dietary salt intake. A web-based search of PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, ProQuest, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Prospero was performed using specified search/MESH terms and keywords. Two reviewers independently performed the data extraction and analysis, cross-checked, reviewed, and resolved any discrepancies by the third reviewer. Twenty out of twenty-two studies met the inclusion criteria and were rated as good quality papers and used in the final analysis. Higher health literacy had shown to have better blood pressure or hypertension knowledge. However, the relationship between health literacy with dietary salt intake has shown mixed and inconsistent findings. Studies looking into the main four domains of health literacy are still limited. More research exploring the links between health literacy, blood pressure, and dietary salt intake in the community is warranted. Using appropriate and consistent health literacy tools to evaluate the effectiveness of salt reduction as health promotion programs is required.

Excess Salt Intake

Purpose: Excess salt intake is one of the most important causes of hypertension. Salt restriction is a key strategy in the management of hypertension and, thus, should be instructed for hypertensive patients under medical treatment. We investigated recent changes in dietary salt intake and blood pressure (BP) levels in hypertensive patients. Methods: Total of 12422 hypertensive subjects (male 71.0% [8814 of 12422], 64.6±9.2 year-old) under medical treatment who visited our hospital for a physical checkup from 2010 to 2016 were enrolled. They were divided into 3 groups according to the number of antihypertensive drugs prescribed (1, 2 and ≥3 drugs). Cross-sectional analyses were performed using data in each year and changes during the 7 years were investigated. Individual salt intake was estimated using a spot urine by a previously reported method. Results: BP levels and the accomplishment rate of the target BP (<140/90mmHg) were improved in each group during the 7 years without significant difference among the groups (Overall 2010 to 2016; BP 132.7±13.6/80.0±8.9 to 128.8±13.7/76.3±9.6 mmHg and accomplishment ratio 65.6 [968 of 1475] to 76.4% [1433 of 1875]). However, individual salt intake was gradually increased in all groups (2010 to 2016 in 1, 2, and ≥3 drugs; 11.7±3.7 to 12.2±4.0, 11.9±3.7 to 12.7±3.9, and 12.2±3.9 to 12.9±4.1 g/day, respectively) and the accomplishment rate of salt restriction (<6g/day) was significantly reduced in subjects with increased number of antihypertensive drugs (3.5 [225 of 6435], 2.8 [125 of 4564], and 2.3% [33 of 1423] in groups with 1, 2, and ≥3 drugs, respectively). The accomplishment rate of the target BP was significantly higher in patients who achieved salt restriction than in those who did not achieve salt restriction in all groups (Over all; 80.2 [307 of 383] vs. 73.3% [8829 of 12039]). Conclusions: The control of BP in individuals with antihypertensive medications was improved in the last 7 years. However, salt restriction has not been successfully achieved especially in hypertensive patients with multiple antihypertensive medications. Excess salt intake may induce resistance to antihypertensive treatment and, thus, increases the number of antihypertensive drugs for BP control.

The Relationship

ObjectivesRecent studies reported that 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure variability (ABPV) was associated with lacunar infarction and white matter hyperintensities (WMH). However, the relationship between ABPV and enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS) has not been investigated. Thus, our study aimed to investigate whether ABPV is associated with EPVS by 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM).DesignWe conducted this study as a cross-sectional study.SettingsThe study was based on patients who presented for physical examinations in our hospital from May 2013 to June 2016.ParticipantsPatients with both brain MRI scans and 24-hour ABPM were included and patients with acute stroke, a history of severe stroke and some other severe diseases were excluded. A total of 573 Chinese patients were prospectively enrolled in this study.Primary and secondary outcome measuresEPVS in basal ganglia (BG) and white matter (WM) were identified on MRI and classified into three categories by the severity. WMH were scored by the Fazekas scale. Coefficient of variation (CV) and SD were considered as metrics of ABPV. Spearman correlation analysis and ordinal logistic regression analysis were used to assess the relationship between ABPV and EPVS.ResultsThere were statistical differences among the subgroups stratified by the severity of EPVS in BG in the following ABPV metrics: SD and CV of systolic blood pressure (SBP), CV of diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in 24 hours, daytime and nighttime and SD of DBP in nighttime. The above ABPV metrics were positively associated with the degree of EPVS. The association was unchanged after adjusting for confounders. Spearman correlation analysis showed ABPV was not related to the degree of EPVS in the WM.ConclusionABPV was independently associated with EPVS in BG after controlling for blood pressure, but not in the WM. Pathogenesis of EPVS in BG and WM might be different.
