Moderate potassium chloride supplementation in essential hypertension: is it additive to moderate sodium restriction?
Twenty patients with mild or moderate essential hypertension and not receiving any drug treatment, who had been moderately restricting their sodium intake to around 70 mmol(mEq) a day for at least one month and whose mean blood pressure was then 163/103 mm Hg, were entered into a double blind, randomised crossover study to compare one month's treatment with slow release potassium chloride table...
متن کاملShort- and long-term neuroadrenergic effects of moderate dietary sodium restriction in essential hypertension.
BACKGROUND In essential hypertension, marked restrictions in dietary sodium intake cause in the short-term period an increase in muscle sympathetic nerve traffic (MSNA) and a baroreflex impairment. The present study was set out to assess on a long-term basis the neuroadrenergic and reflex effects of moderate sodium restriction. METHODS AND RESULTS In 11 untreated mild to moderate essential hy...
متن کاملModerate sodium restriction with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor in essential hypertension.
Fifteen unselected patients who had essential hypertension and whose average supine blood pressure when they were not receiving any treatment and their usual sodium intake was 162/107 mm Hg were treated with captopril 50 mg twice daily. After one month's treatment their supine blood pressure had decreased to 149/94 mm Hg. They were then instructed to reduce their sodium intake to about 80 mmol(...
متن کاملEffects on left ventricular hypertrophy of long-term nonpharmacological treatment with sodium restriction in mild-to-moderate essential hypertension.
BACKGROUND Cross-sectional studies on human hypertension have suggested an association between sodium intake and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). METHODS AND RESULTS The effects on LVH of a nonpharmacological treatment program based mainly on sodium restriction were examined by serial echocardiography in a 12-month controlled, randomized study that included 76 previously untreated subjects...
