Sentences with phrase «compared sodium excretion»

Not exact matches

Compared with moderate sodium excretion, there was an association between low sodium excretion and cardiovascular (CVD) death and hospitalization for coronary heart failure.

Compared to the sodium reference range of 4 to 6 grams per day, an increased risk of death and CVD events were associated with sodium excretion of over 7 grams per day (hazard ratio 1.15) and with sodium excretion of less than 3 grams per day (hazard ratio 1.27).

Most importantly, the study found that sodium excretion equal to the «adequate intake» promoted by health officials of 1.5 grams per day was associated with a large increased risk of death and serious CVD events compared to the average reference level of 4.5 grams per day (hazard ratio 1.80).

Findings: mean sodium excretion was 4.93 g. Compared to a reference range of 4.00 - 5.99 g a day, the odds ratio for death and cardiovascular events was 1.15 for high sodium excretion (over 7 g a day) but was even greater at 1.27 for a low sodium excretion (below 3 g).
