Objectives Studies indicate high sodium and low potassium intake can increase blood
pressure suggesting the ratio of sodium-to-potassium may be informative. Yet, limited …

Previous prospective cohort studies on the association between potassium intake and risk of
hypertension have almost exclusively relied on self-reported dietary data, whereas repeated …

This study aimed to clarify the relationship between repeated measurements of casual (spot)
and 24-h urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na/K) ratios in patients with chronic kidney disease …

Aims A potassium replete diet is associated with lower blood pressure (BP) and lower risk of
cardiovascular disease (CVD). Whether these associations differ between men and women …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of dietary potassium on the
sodium effect on blood pressure (BP) in the general population and the adherence of current …

Several lifestyle and sociodemographic factors are associated with blood pressure (BP). The
authors conducted a retrospective study of 4870 subjects from the National Health Survey …

While sodium and potassium are individually important for blood pressure (BP) regulation,
the relative contribution of sodium to potassium intake has not been sufficiently investigated …

Background and Objectives: Low sodium and high potassium intake is reported to be a risk
of hypertension. However, it is uncertain whether these associations can be generalized to …

Objective In the kidney disease clinic setting, higher-than-usual blood pressure is often
ascribed to recent dietary sodium indiscretion. While clinical trials demonstrate a clear …

The spot urinary sodium-to-potassium (Na/K) ratio is a simple measure of salt loading and
has been shown to be associated with elevated blood pressure (BP) in middle-aged and …
