Evaluating Impedance Monitoring to Reduce Hospital Readmissions for Patients with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction: An Integrative Review

TLDR
This project evaluated the literature related to impedance monitoring in the management ofCongestive Heart Failure to demonstrate the state of evidence regarding the effect of impedance monitoring on 30 day hospital readmission rates.

Blood pressure control status and relationship between salt intake and lifestyle including diet in hypertensive outpatients treated at a general hospital

TLDR
The rate of achievement of salt restriction was low in hypertensive patients treated at a general hospital and the relationship between their lifestyles and amount of salt intake was examined to provide data on actual salt intake and guide salt restriction in the individual management of hypertension.

Understanding the science that supports population‐wide salt reduction programs

Independent systematic reviews of the totality of the evidence by governments and international agencies throughout the world uniformly conclude that population-wide interventions to reduce salt are…

Impact of a Holistic Health Intervention on the Well-Being of Elderly Thais

TLDR
This mindfulness-based intervention to elderly people improved health parameters related to metabolic diseases and found a trend toward improvement of cortisol levels in both groups, therefore, applying the intervention in primary healthcare may help promote the well-being in elderly.

Identifying the most effective and cost effective public health nutrition policy options for CVD prevention

Women and NCDs: Overcoming the neglect

TLDR
In the area of diagnosis and treatment, gender bias can result in women being asked fewer questions, and receiving fewer examinations and fewer diagnostic tests for coronary heart disease and other NCDs compared with men with similar symptoms.

Salt reduction in England from 2003 to 2011: its relationship to blood pressure, stroke and ischaemic heart disease mortality

TLDR
The reduction in salt intake is likely to be an important contributor to the falls in BP from 2003 to 2011 in England, and would have contributed substantially to the decreases in stroke and IHD mortality.

Generalization of contextual fear is sex-specifically affected by high salt intake

A hallmark symptom of many anxiety disorders, and multiple neuropsychiatric disorders more broadly, is generalization of fearful responses to non-fearful stimuli. Anxiety disorders are often comorbid…

Estimation of the Effect of Salt-Intake Reduction on Cardiovascular Mortality Decline between 1950 and 2017 in Japan: A Retrospective Simulation Study

TLDR
The model suggests that the decline in salt intake since the 1950s has contributed to a non-negligible reduction in cardiovascular mortality.

Performance of equations for estimation of 24-hour urinary sodium from morning fasting urine samples in a multisite study in India

TLDR
Tan Tanaka equation provided acceptable values of 24-hour salt intake at the population level, however, poor performance of all the equations highlights the need to understand the reasons and develop better methods for the measurement of sodium intake atThe population level.

Reduced dietary salt for the prevention of cardiovascular disease.

TLDR
Estimates of benefits from dietary salt restriction are consistent with the predicted small effects on clinical events attributable to the small blood pressure reduction achieved, and there is insufficient power to exclude clinically important effects of reduced dietary salt on mortality or cardiovascular morbidity in normotensive or hypertensive populations.

By how much does dietary salt reduction lower blood pressure? I--Analysis of observational data among populations.

TLDR
The association of blood pressure with sodium intake is substantially larger than is generally appreciated and increases with age and initial blood pressure.

TLDR

Chronic disease prevention: health effects and financial costs of strategies to reduce salt intake and control tobacco use

How Far Should Salt Intake Be Reduced?

TLDR
A meta-analysis of longer-term trials looked at the dose response between salt reduction and fall in blood pressure and compared this with 2 well-controlled studies of 3 different salt intakes, finding a consistent dose response to salt reduction within the range of 12 to 3 g/d.

Normal-sodium diet compared with low-sodium diet in compensated congestive heart failure: is sodium an old enemy or a new friend?

TLDR
It is shown that a normal-sodium diet improves outcome, and sodium depletion has detrimental renal and neurohormonal effects with worse clinical outcome in compensated patients with CHF patients.

Reduced dietary salt for the prevention of cardiovascular disease: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (Cochrane review).

TLDR
Estimates of benefits from dietary salt restriction are consistent with the predicted small effects on clinical events attributable to the small BP reduction achieved, and there is still insufficient power to exclude clinically important effects of reduced dietary salt on mortality or CVD morbidity.
