© 2016 Elsevier Ltd This pilot study examined the feasibility of adherence to a low sodium diet in a sample of healthy New Zealand adults. It also addressed whether following a low sodium diet was accompanied by changes in intakes of other nutrients that influence cardiovascular risk. Eleven healthy adults provided dietary intake data and a 24-hour urine collection at baseline and follow-up. They then received nutritional counselling based on the World Health Organization recommendation for sodium intake (<2000 mg/day) and received ongoing nutritional support while undertaking a low sodium diet for four weeks. At the end of the four-week period, participants completed a semi-structured interview that elicited participants’ opinions on barriers and facilitators to following a low sodium diet and explored changes in participants’ dietary habits and behaviours. Thematic analysis revealed that adherence to a low sodium diet required substantial changes to participants’ usual food purchasing and preparation habits. Participants reported that lack of control over the sodium content of meals eaten away from the home, the complex and time-consuming nature of interpreting nutrition information labels, and difficulty identifying suitable snacks were barriers to adherence. Detailed meal planning and cooking from scratch, using flavour replacements, reading food labels to identify low sodium foods, receiving support from other people and receiving tailored nutrition advice were facilitators. Mean sodium intake reduced over the period, accompanied by a decrease in mean intake of total fat. These factors suggest that sodium reduction in New Zealand adults was feasible. However, considerable changes to eating behaviours were required.

Patients With Heart Failure

Background: Despite the clinical emphasis on recommending a low sodium diet (LSD), adherence to a LSD remains poor in patients with heart failure (HF). Additional research is needed to determine successful interventions to improve adherence to a LSD and health outcomes. Purpose: To determine the effect of an education intervention on adherence to a LSD and health outcomes. Method: A total of 109 HF patients (age 64±9 years, 29% female) who were non-adherent to LSD, indicating > 3g of 24-hour urinary sodium excretion (24hr UNa) at baseline, were randomly assigned to one of 3 groups: 1) symptom monitoring and restricted 3 gram sodium diet (SMART) group, 2) the telephone monitoring (TM) group, or 3) usual care control group. The SMART group received individualized teaching and guidance of self-monitoring for worsening symptom and sodium intake using symptom and food diary for 4 sessions over 8 weeks. Patients assigned to either of the 2 intervention groups (SMART or TM) received phone calls every 2 weeks over 8 weeks. At 6 months follow-up, adherence to a LSD was assessed using 24hr UNa. Patients were followed for 1 year to determine time to first event of hospitalization or death due to cardiac problems. Repeated measures ANOVA and Cox regression were used to determine the effect of intervention. Results: The SMART group (n=37) showed a significant reduction in sodium intake across time compared to the TM group (n=35) and control group (n=37) (p= .022). In the Cox regression, patients in the SMART group had longer cardiac event-free survival compared to the control group after controlling for age, gender, ejection fraction, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor use, and better blocker use (p=.008). Conclusion: An education intervention focused on self-monitoring for symptom and sodium intake improved adherence to LSD and health outcomes in patients with HF. Helping patients engage in self-monitoring for symptom and sodium intake by themselves can promote better health outcome.

To investigate the role of brain serotonergic neurons in the regulation of renin secretion, we measured changes in plasma renin activity (PRA), and, in some instances, plasma renin concentration (PRC), plasma angiotensinogen, and plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in rats with lesions of the dorsal raphe nucleus and lesions of the paraventricular nuclei, dorsomedial nuclei, and ventromedial nuclei of the hypothalamus. We also investigated the effects of p-chloroamphetamine (PCA), immobilization, head-up tilt, and a low-sodium diet in the rats with dorsal raphe, paraventricular, and dorsomedial lesions. Lesions of the dorsal raphe nucleus abolished the increase in PRA produced by PCA but had no effect on the increase produced by immobilization, head-up tilt, and a low-sodium diet. Paraventricular lesions, which abolish the increase in plasma ACTH produced by PCA, immobilization, and head-up tilt, decreased plasma angiotensinogen. The paraventricular lesions abolished the PRA and the PRC responses to PCA and the PRA but not PRC response to immobilization, head-up tilt, and a low-sodium diet. The ventromedial lesions abolished the PRA and PRC responses to PCA and did not reduce plasma angiotensinogen. The data suggest that paraventricular lesions depress angiotensinogen production by the liver and that the paraventricular and ventromedial nuclei are part of the pathway by which serotonergic discharges increase renin secretion. They also suggest that the serotonergic pathway does mediate the increases in renin secretion produced by immobilization, head-up tilt, and a low-sodium diet.
