RESUMO
This interdisciplinary review explores the intricate nexus between HIV infection, nutrition, adrenal gland function, and cardiovascular health, highlighting a critical aspect of HIV management often overlooked in current literature. With the advent of antiretroviral therapy, the life expectancy of people living with HIV has dramatically improved, transforming HIV into a manageable chronic condition. However, this success brings forth new challenges, notably an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases among people living with HIV. We examine the normal physiology of the adrenal gland, including its role in mineral metabolism, a crucial facet of nutrition. We discuss the evolution of knowledge tying adrenal pathology to cardiovascular disease. We explore the impact of HIV on adrenal gland findings from a gross pathology perspective, as well as the clinical impact of adrenal insufficiency in HIV. The review further elucidates the role of nutrition in this context, considering the double burden of undernutrition and obesity prevalent in regions heavily affected by HIV. By aggregating findings from longitudinal studies and recent clinical trials, the review presents compelling evidence of increased cardiovascular disease among people living with HIV compared with people without HIV. It highlights the critical role of the adrenal glands in regulating nutrient metabolism and its implications for cardiovascular health, drawing attention to the potential for dietary interventions and targeted therapies to mitigate these risks. This review urges a paradigm shift in the management of HIV, advocating for a holistic approach that incorporates nutritional assessment and interventions into routine HIV care to address the complex interplay between HIV, adrenal function, and cardiovascular health. Through this lens, we offer insights into novel therapeutic strategies aimed at reducing cardiovascular risk in people living with HIV, contributing to the ongoing efforts to enhance the quality of life and longevity in this population.

Objectives: Sodium homeostasis in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants is critical. While a lack of sodium delays growth, excessive supplementation increases morbidity. Methods: We performed a single-center retrospective study on sodium and fluid management during the first 2 weeks of live including all ELBW infants born between June 1, 2017 and May 31, 2019. Results: Forty-seven patients (median GA 26 + 6 weeks, median BW 845 g) were included. Mean sodium intake was above the ESPGHAN recommendation, 4.58 mmol/kg/day during the first 2 days and 1.99 mmol/kg/day during the following period. Incidence of PDA, IVH, and ROP was directly associated with sodium intake (OR 1.6, 1.3, and 1.4, respectively), but not with fluid supplementation. No association to BPD was found. The most important source for inadvertent sodium intake were 0.9% saline given by arterial lines. Sodium supplementation did not correlate directly with serum sodium levels, but a linear regression model combining sodium intake and fluid supplementation was able to predict serum sodium changes 24-48 h in advance (correlation coefficient of 0.294, p < 0.05). Conclusions: Sodium application substantially exceeded ESPGHAN recommendations in ELBW infants. An excess in sodium was associated with an overall increased morbidity, justifying increased efforts to identify inadvertent sodium sources in these patients with the aim to decrease sodium excess.
RESUMO
Objective: To determine the 24-hour urinary sodium and potassium excretions in the Americas. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed seeking for studies conducted between 1990 and 2021 in adults living in any sovereign state of the Americas in Medline, Embase, Scopus, SciELO, and Lilacs. The search was first run on October 26th, 2020 and was updated on December 15th, 2021. Of 3 941 abstracts reviewed, 74 studies were included from 14 countries, 72 studies reporting urinary sodium (27 387 adults), and 42 studies reporting urinary potassium (19 610 adults) carried out between 1990 and 2020. Data were pooled using a random-effects meta-analysis model. Results: Mean excretion was 157.29 mmol/24h (95% CI, 151.42-163.16) for sodium and 57.69 mmol/24h (95% CI, 53.35-62.03) for potassium. When only women were considered, mean excretion was 135.81 mmol/24h (95% CI, 130.37-141.25) for sodium and 51.73 mmol/24h (95% CI, 48.77-54.70) for potassium. In men, mean excretion was 169.39 mmol/24h (95% CI, 162.14-176.64) for sodium and 62.67 mmol/24h (95% CI, 55.41-69.93) for potassium. Mean sodium excretion was 150.09 mmol/24h (95% CI, 137.87-162.30) in the 1990s and 159.79 mmol/24h (95% CI, 151.63-167.95) in the 2010s. Mean potassium excretion was 58.64 mmol/24h (95% CI, 52.73-64.55) in the 1990s and 56.33 mmol/24/h (95% CI, 48.65-64.00) in the 2010s. Conclusions: These findings suggest that sodium excretions are almost double the maximum level recommended by the World Health Organization and potassium excretions are 35% lower than the minimum requirement; therefore, major efforts to reduce sodium and to increase potassium intakes should be implemented.
RESUMO
Objectives: To evaluate the association between knowledge, attitudes, and behavior (KAB) towards sodium use and sodium intake measured by 24-hour urinary collection in an adult cohort from Uruguay (Genotype Phenotype and Environment of Hypertension Study, GEFA-HT-UY). Methods: In a cross-sectional study (n = 159), a single 24-hour urinary sample, participants' physical, biochemical and blood pressure measurements and questionnaire data were collected. The association between KAB and 24-hour urinary sodium excretion was assessed using general linear models. Results: Mean age of participants was 49.8±15.5 years, 67.9% were women, and mean 24-hour urinary sodium excretion was 3.6±1.7 g/day. Although 90.6% of participants exceeded the maximum recommended intake as indicated by urinary sodium excretion, more than half misperceived their actual intake, reporting consuming "the right amount." Almost three-quarters of the participants reported being concerned about the amount of sodium in their diet, but only 52.8% reported taking action to control it. Lack of procedural knowledge was observed. There was no association between KAB and sodium use and intake assessed by 24-hour urinary sodium excretion. Conclusions: The lack of association between KAB towards the use of sodium and intake measured by 24-hour urinary excretion reflects the need to support people with opportunities and motivations to reduce sodium consumption. Structural actions to promote an adequate food environment, such as the effective implementation of the front-of-package nutrition labeling in Uruguay, are positive steps.
RESUMO
Findings on the association of sodium with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are conflicting. The present systematic review and meta-analysis study aimed to assess the association between salt or sodium intake or serum sodium levels and NAFLD risk. Relevant articles were identified by searching PubMed, Web of Knowledge, Scopus, Proquest, and Embase databases through May 1, 2021, without language restriction. The pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were estimated using Der-Simonian and Laird method and random-effects meta-analysis. The certainty of the evidence was rated using the GRADE method. Out of 6470 documents, 7 epidemiological/observational (1 cohort, 1 case-control, and 5 cross-sectional) studies on the relationship between dietary salt/sodium intakes and NAFLD risk met our inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis of all studies showed a significant positive association between the highest salt/sodium intake and NALFD risk (OR = 1.60, 95% CI: 1.19-2.15) with a meaningful heterogeneity among studies (I2 = 96.70%, p-value <.001). The NAFLD risk was greater in the studies with higher quality (OR = 1.81, 95% CI: 1.24-2.65) or using the equation-based methods for NAFLD ascertainment (OR = 2.02, 95% CI: 1.29-3.17) or urinary sodium collection as a sodium intake assessment (OR = 2.48, 95% CI: 1.52-4.06). The overall certainty of the evidence was very low. In conclusion, high sodium intake seems to be related to increased NAFLD risk. Further well-designed studies are needed to clarify this association and shed light on the underlying mechanisms.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: Previous studies show that consuming foods preserved by salting increases the risk of gastric cancer, while results on the association between total salt or added salt and gastric cancer are less consistent and vary with the exposure considered. This study aimed to quantify the association between dietary salt exposure and gastric cancer, using an individual participant data meta-analysis of studies participating in the Stomach cancer Pooling (StoP) Project. METHODS: Data from 25 studies (10,283 cases and 24,643 controls) from the StoP Project with information on salt taste preference (tasteless, normal, salty), use of table salt (never, sometimes, always), total sodium intake (tertiles of grams/day), and high-salt and salt-preserved foods intake (tertiles of grams/day) were used. A two-stage approach based on random-effects models was used to pool study-specific adjusted (sex, age, and gastric cancer risk factors) odds ratios (aORs), and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). RESULTS: Gastric cancer risk was higher for salty taste preference (aOR 1.59, 95% CI 1.25-2.03), always using table salt (aOR 1.33, 95% CI 1.16-1.54), and for the highest tertile of high-salt and salt-preserved foods intake (aOR 1.24, 95% CI 1.01-1.51) vs. the lowest tertile. No significant association was observed for the highest vs. the lowest tertile of total sodium intake (aOR 1.08, 95% CI 0.82-1.43). The results obtained were consistent across anatomic sites, strata of Helicobacter pylori infection, and sociodemographic, lifestyle and study characteristics. CONCLUSION: Salty taste preference, always using table salt, and a greater high-salt and salt-preserved foods intake increased the risk of gastric cancer, though the association was less robust with total sodium intake.

Primary aldosteronism, the most common secondary form of hypertension, is thought to be present in ≈5% to 10% of hypertensive adults. However, recent studies indicate that its prevalence may be at least 3-fold higher based on the identification of renin-independent (autonomous) aldosterone production that is not suppressible with dietary sodium loading in a large fraction of adults with primary hypertension. Currently, the screening rate for primary aldosteronism in adults with primary hypertension is <1%. This review summarizes current thinking about primary aldosteronism from the standpoint of 3 key questions: Where are we now? Where to from here? So how do we get there?

RESUMEN Objetivos. Evaluar la relación entre conocimientos, actitudes y comportamientos en lo relativo a la ingesta de sodio medida por la recolección de orina de 24 horas en una cohorte de adultos en Uruguay (GEnotipo, Fenotipo y Ambiente de la HiperTensión Arterial en UruguaY, GEFA-HT-UY). Métodos. En un estudio transversal (n = 159), se obtuvo una muestra urinaria de 24 horas y los datos de un cuestionario y de las mediciones físicas, bioquímicas y de presión arterial de los participantes. Se evaluó la asociación entre conocimientos, actitudes y comportamientos y la excreción urinaria de sodio en 24 horas con modelos lineales generales. Resultados. La edad media de los participantes fue 49,8±15,5 años, 67,9% eran mujeres y la excreción urinaria media de sodio en 24 horas fue de 3,6±1,7 g/día. Aunque 90,6% de los participantes excedieron la ingesta máxima recomendada de acuerdo con la excreción urinaria de sodio, más de la mitad percibió su ingesta real incorrectamente al señalar que consumía "la cantidad correcta". Casi tres cuartas partes de los participantes manifestaron estar preocupados por la cantidad de sodio en su dieta, si bien solo 52,8% declaró haber tomado medidas para controlarla. Se observó una falta de conocimiento sobre los procedimientos. No se encontró una asociación entre conocimientos, actitudes y comportamientos y la ingesta de sodio evaluada mediante la excreción urinaria de sodio en 24 horas. Conclusiones. La falta de relación entre conocimientos, actitudes y comportamientos respecto del consumo de sodio y su ingesta medida por excreción urinaria en 24 horas refleja la necesidad de apoyar a las personas con oportunidades y motivaciones para reducir el consumo de sodio. Adoptar medidas estructurales que promuevan unas condiciones alimentarias adecuadas, como la aplicación efectiva del etiquetado nutricional frontal en Uruguay, constituye un paso en la dirección correcta.
RESUMO Objetivos. Avaliar a associação entre conhecimento, atitudes e comportamento (KAB, sigla do inglês Knowledge, Attitudes, Behavior) e o uso e ingestão de sódio, medida pela coleta de urina de 24 horas em uma coorte de adultos do Uruguai (Estudo do Genótipo, Fenótipo e Ambiente da Hipertensão, GEFA-HT-UY). Métodos. Em um estudo transversal (n = 159), foi coletada uma única amostra de urina de 24 horas dos participantes, medidas físicas, bioquímicas e de pressão arterial, e dados de questionários. A associação entre KAB e excreção urinária de sódio nas 24 horas foi avaliada por meio de modelos lineares gerais. Resultados. A idade média dos participantes foi de 49,8±15,5 anos; 67,9% eram mulheres e a excreção média de sódio na urina de 24 horas foi de 3,6±1,7 g/dia. Embora 90,6% dos participantes excedessem a ingestão máxima recomendada, conforme indicado pela excreção urinária de sódio, mais da metade dos participantes não tinha percepção da real ingestão de sódio, relatando consumir "a quantidade correta". Quase três quartos dos participantes relataram estar preocupados com a quantidade de sódio na dieta, mas apenas 52,8% relataram ter implementado medidas para controlá-la. Observou-se falta de conhecimento de procedimentos. Não houve associação entre KAB e o uso e a ingestão de sódio avaliada pela excreção de sódio na urina de 24 horas. Conclusões. A falta de associação entre KAB e o uso e a ingestão do sódio avaliada pela excreção urinária de 24 horas reflete a necessidade de oferecer apoio aos indivíduos por meio de oportunidades e motivações para reduzir o consumo de sódio. Ações estruturais para promover um ambiente alimentar adequado, como a implementação efetiva de advertências na rotulagem frontal dos alimentos no Uruguai, são passos positivos.

Se agruparon los datos mediante un modelo de metanálisis de efectos aleatorios. Resultados. La excreción media de sodio fue de 157,29 mmol/24h (IC de 95%, 151,42-163,16); la de potasio, de 57,69 mmol/24 h (IC de 95%, 53,35-62,03). En los casos en que se consideraron únicamente mujeres, la excreción media de sodio fue de 135,81 mmol/24h (IC de 95%, 130,37-141,25); la de potasio, de 51,73 mmol/24h (IC de 95%, 48,77-54,70). En varones, la excreción media de sodio fue de 169,39 mmol/24h (IC de 95%, 162,14-176,64); la de potasio, de 62,67 mmol/24h (IC de 95%, 55,41-69,93). La excreción media de sodio fue de 150,09 mmol/24h (IC de 95%, 137,87-162,30) en la década de 1990 y de 159,79 mmol/24 h (IC de 95%, 151,63-167,95) en la década del 2010. La excreción media de potasio fue de 58,64 mmol/24h (IC de 95%, 52,73-64,55) en la década de 1990 y de 56,33 mmol/24h (IC de 95%, 48,65-64,00) en la década del 2010. Conclusiones. Estos resultados sugieren que la excreción de sodio casi duplica el nivel máximo recomendado por la Organización Mundial de la Salud y las excreción de potasio es 35% más baja que el requisito mínimo, por lo que se deben invertir grandes esfuerzos para reducir el consumo de sodio y aumentar la ingesta de potasio.
RESUMO Objetivo. Determinar as excreções urinárias de sódio e potássio em 24 horas na Região das Américas. Métodos. Revisão sistemática e metanálise de estudos realizados entre 1990 e 2021, em adultos vivendo em qualquer estado soberano da região, indexados nos bancos de dados MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, SciELO e LILACS. A pesquisa foi realizada pela primeira vez em 26 de outubro de 2020 e foi atualizada em 15 de dezembro de 2021. Dos 3.941 resumos revisados, foram incluídos 74 estudos de 14 países, 72 estudos relatando sódio urinário (27.387 adultos) e 42 estudos relatando potássio urinário (19.610 adultos), realizados entre 1990 e 2020. Os dados foram reunidos utilizando um modelo de metanálise de efeitos aleatórios. Resultados. A excreção média foi de 157,29 mmol/24h (IC95% 151,42-163,16) para o sódio e 57,69 mmol/24h (IC95% 53,35-62,03) para o potássio. Quando somente mulheres foram consideradas, a excreção média foi de 135,81 mmol/24h (IC95% 130,37-141,25) para o sódio e 51,73 mmol/24h (IC95% 48,77-54,70) para o potássio. Nos homens, a excreção média foi de 169,39 mmol/24h (IC95% 162,14-176,64) para o sódio e 62,67 mmol/24h (IC95% 55,41-69,93) para o potássio. A excreção média de sódio foi de 150,09 mmol/24h (IC95% 137,87-162,30) na década de 1990 e 159,79 mmol/24h (IC95% 151,63-167,95) na década de 2010. A excreção média de potássio foi de 58,64 mmol/24h (IC95% 52,73-64,55) na década de 1990 e 56,33 mmol/24/h (IC95% 48,65-64,00) na década de 2010. Conclusões. Estes achados sugerem que as excreções de sódio são quase o dobro do nível máximo recomendado pela Organização Mundial da Saúde e as excreções de potássio são 35% menores do que o mínimo exigido; portanto, será necessário envidar esforços importantes para reduzir a ingestão de sódio e aumentar a de potássio.
RESUMO
Given the more recent interest in its flavour enhancing potential, the effects of the addition of glucosamine or glucosamine caramel on both technological and consumer acceptability of regular and reduced salt breakfast sausages were studied. A 2 × 3 complete factorial design was used with salt level (regular salt, RS (1.1%) and low salt, LS (0.825%)) and formulation treatment (control, GlcN - glucosamine (1%), CAR - glucosamine caramel (1% GlcN equivalent)) as main effects. Raw or cooked sausages were analyzed for CIE L*, a* and b*, physical and textural properties and consumer acceptance. Different salt levels did not affect the pH of meat batter, while the reduced salt treatment resulted in higher cook loss. On the contrary, addition of GlcN and CAR reduced the pH of sausage with no effect on cook loss. Neither salt levels nor treatment formulation affected the textural attributes of sausages. The inclusion of CAR significantly reduced L* value and increased redness (a*) and yellowness (b*) of cooked sausages. Salt reduction resulted in decreased a* and b* values in raw batter; the effect which disappeared in cooked sausages. Glucosamine caramel increased the overall and flavour acceptability score of low salt breakfast sausages. The present study showed that glucosamine caramel could potentially improve the flavour of low salt breakfast sausage with limited effect on textural attributes.

African-Americans are disproportionately affected by hypertension with lower rates of blood pressure control in comparison to the general population (Brennan et al., 2010). Low-sodium dietary intake is one of the most important lifestyle changes that can help control hypertension (Zhang et al., 2013). This qualitative study aimed to explore and describe the perceptions and experiences of low-sodium dietary practices among African-American women with hypertension. The study used a single-category focus group design. The findings suggest that African-American women are attempting to follow a low-sodium diet; however, they are influenced by personal and environmental factors and lack a clear understanding of what a low-sodium diet entails. Therefore, nurses must understand the factors that influence African-American women's ability to follow a low-sodium diet so that effective interventions can be implemented to improve adherence in this population.

BACKGROUND: We conducted a pilot study to assess feasibility, on-study retention, trends in natriuretic peptide levels, quality of life, and safety of a 12-week feeding trial with 1500- versus 3000-mg daily sodium meals in high-risk patients with heart failure. METHODS: Of 196 patients with recent (≤2 weeks) hospitalization for heart failure, ejection fraction ≤40%, on optimal medical therapy, functionally independent, and able to communicate, 83 (47%) consented to participate. Of these, 27 (age, 62±11 years; 22 men; 20 white; ejection fraction, 26±8%) had 24-hour urine sodium ≥3000 mg and agreed to randomly receive either 1500-mg (N=12) or 3000-mg (N=15) sodium meals. RESULTS: On-study retention at 12 weeks was 77% (82% versus 73%; P=0.53); 6 patients (2 in 1500-mg, 4 in 3000-mg arm) withdrew before study completion. Food satisfaction questionnaires indicated that both diets were well tolerated. Quality of life improved in the 1500-mg arm at 12 weeks but did not change in the 3000-mg arm. Average compliance with meals was 52% (based on urinary sodium) and was not significantly different between arms (42% versus 60%; P=0.25). Study meals reduced 24-hour urinary sodium by 137±21 mmol (1500-mg arm) and 82±16 mmol (3000-mg arm), both P<0.001; between-arms difference was 55 mmol (95% CI, 3-107; P=0.037). NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide) was not affected. Hospitalizations and low blood pressure events did not differ significantly between arms. Serum creatinine decreased more (by 0.17 mg/dL [95% CI, 0.06-0.28]; P=0.003) in the 1500-mg arm. Creatinine increases >0.5 mg/dL over baseline only occurred in 1 patient in the 3000-mg arm. CONCLUSIONS: Even with prepared meals, investigating optimal dietary sodium in heart failure comes with challenges, including need for extensive screening, reluctance to participate, and compliance issues. Because both diets reduced urinary sodium without adverse safety or quality of life signals, a larger trial, with modifications to improve participation and compliance, would be ethical and feasible.

To study the effect of formulas on the estimation of dietary sodium intake (sodium intake) and its association with mortality, we analyzed the TOHP (Trials of Hypertension Prevention) follow-up data. Sodium intake was assessed by measured 24-hour urinary sodium excretion and estimations from sodium concentration using the Kawasaki, Tanaka, and INTERSALT (International Cooperative Study on Salt, Other Factors, and Blood Pressure) formulas. We used both the average of 3 to 7 urinary measurements during the trial period and the first measurement at the beginning of each trial. Additionally, we kept sodium concentration constant to test whether the formulas were independently associated with mortality. We included 2974 individuals aged 30 to 54 years with prehypertension, not assigned to sodium intervention. During a median 24-year follow-up, 272 deaths occurred. The average measured sodium intake was 3766±1290 mg/d. All estimated values, including those with constant sodium concentration, were systematically biased with overestimation at lower levels and underestimation at higher levels. There was a significant linear association between the average measured sodium intake (ie, gold standard method) and mortality. This relationship was altered by using the estimated sodium intakes. There appeared to be a J- or U-shaped relationship for the average estimated sodium by all formulas. Despite variations in the sodium-mortality relationship among various formulas, a common pattern was that all estimated values including those with constant sodium appeared to be inversely related to mortality at lower levels of sodium intake. These results demonstrate that inaccurate estimates of sodium cannot be used in association studies, particularly as the formulas per se seem to be related to mortality independent of sodium.

Objective: To analyze the status of dietary sodium intake of Chinese adult residents in fifteen provinces in 2015. Methods: Data were collected from 2015 China Nutrition Transition Cohort Study. This cohort study used a three consecutive 24-h retrospective method to record food intake and weighing method to record household condiment consumption. In this study, 14 847 residents aged 18 years and over with complete data from 15 provinces in 2015 were selected for the comparison of dietary sodium intake (median) with different characteristics. Results: Among the 14 847 residents, 47.1% were males, and the rural and northern residents accounted for 60.1% and 37.7%, respectively. Median sodium intake was 3 960.0 mg/d among residents in 2015. The sodium intake of males (4 272.1 mg/d) was higher than that of females (3 716.6 mg/d). Across age subgroups, sodium intake was highest among residents aged 45-59 years (4 257.0 mg/d; 18-44 years old, 3 867.1 mg/d; ≥60 years old, 3 799.0 mg/d). Sodium intake was higher in rural area (4 042.9 mg/d) than in urban area (3 866.8 mg/d), higher in north (4 229.2 mg/d) than in south (3 806.8 mg/d) (all P values <0.05). 11.8% of residents with dietary sodium intake were below 2 000 mg/d. The main sources of dietary sodium were condiments (79.4%), regular cooking foods (11.9%) and processed foods (8.7%). Among the condiments, the salt and soy sauce accounted for 63.6% and 10.4%, respectively. Conclusion: In 2015, Chinese adult residents had higher dietary sodium intake with gender and regional differences. Condiments were the main source of dietary sodium.

Abstract Background: The low or non-adherence to reduction of sodium intake has been identified as one of the main precipitating factors of heart failure (HF). The Dietary Sodium Restriction Questionnaire (DSRQ) identifies factors that can interfere with adherence to this recommendation. However, there is still no cut-point to define adherence for this questionnaire. Objectives: To identify the cut-point for satisfactory adherence to the Brazilian version of the DSRQ, (the Questionário de Restrição de Sódio na Dieta, QRSD). Methods: Multicenter study. Patients with HF in outpatient treatment (compensated) and those treated in emergency departments due to acute HF (decompensated) were included. For the cut-point definition, the DSRQ scores were compared between groups. A ROC curve was constructed for each subscale to determine the best point of sensitivity and specificity regarding adherence. A 5% significance level was adopted. Results: A total of 206 compensated patients and 225 decompensated were included. Compensated patients exhibited scores that showed higher adhesion in all subscales (all p <0.05). Scores ≥ 40 points of a total of 45 for the subscale of Attitude and Subjective Norm; scores ≤ eight of a total of 20 for Perceived Behavioral Control; and ≤ three of a total of 15 for Dependent Behavior Control were indicative of satisfactory adherence. Conclusions: Based on the evaluation of patients in these two scenarios, it was possible to determine the cut-point for satisfactory adherence to the reduction of sodium in the diet of patients with HF. Countries with similar culture could use this cut-point, as other researchers could also use the results as a reference for further studies.
Resumo Fundamento: A baixa ou a não adesão à redução de sódio na dieta foi identificada como um dos principais fatores causais da insuficiência cardíaca (IC). O Questionário de Restrição de Sódio na Dieta (QRSD) do inglês Dietary Sodium Restriction Questionnaire (DSRQ) identifica fatores que possam interferir na adesão a essa recomendação. No entanto, anda não existe um ponto de corte que estabelece adesão segundo o QRSD. Objetivos: Identificar o ponto de corte para adesão satisfatória ao QRSD, versão brasileira do DSRQ. Métodos: Estudo multicêntrico. Foram incluídos pacientes com IC em tratamento ambulatorial (compensados) e aqueles tratados em serviços de emergência por IC aguda (descompensados). Para a definição do ponto de corte, os escores do QRSD foram comparados entre os grupos. A curva ROC foi construída para cada subescala para determinar o melhor ponto de sensibilidade e especificidade em relação à adesão. Adotou-se um nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: Foram incluídos 206 pacientes compensados e 225 pacientes descompensados. Os pacientes compensados apresentaram escores que indicaram maior adesão em todas as subescalas (p < 0,05). Escores ≥ 40 pontos de um total de 45 para a subescala "atitude e norma subjetiva"; escores ≤ 8 de um total de 20 para a subescala "controle comportamental percebido"; e escores 3 de um total de 15 para "comportamento dependente" foram indicativos de adesão satisfatória. Conclusões: A avaliação de pacientes com IC atendidos no ambulatório ou na emergência permitiu a determinação dos pontos de corte para adesão satisfatória à restrição dietética de sódio. Países de culturas similares poderiam usar esse mesmo ponto de corte, bem como outros pesquisadores poderiam utilizá-lo como referência para outros estudos.

Approximately 7%-10% of patients with ESKD worldwide undergo peritoneal dialysis (PD) as kidney replacement therapy. The continuous nature of this dialytic modality and the absence of acute shifts in pressure and volume parameters is an important differentiation between PD and in-center hemodialysis. However, the burden of hypertension and prognostic association of BP with mortality follow comparable patterns in both modalities. Although management of hypertension uses similar therapeutic principles, long-term preservation of residual diuresis and longevity of peritoneal membrane function require particular attention in the prescription of the appropriate dialysis regimen among those on PD. Dietary sodium restriction, appropriate use of icodextrin, and limited exposure of peritoneal membrane to bioincompatible solutions, as well as adaptation of the PD regimen to the peritoneal transport characteristics, are first-line therapeutic strategies to achieve adequate volume control with a potential long-term benefit on technique survival. Antihypertensive drug therapy is a second-line therapeutic approach, used when BP remains unresponsive to the above volume management strategies. In this article, we review the available evidence on epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of hypertension among patients on PD and discuss similarities and differences between PD and in-center hemodialysis. We conclude with a call for randomized trials aiming to elucidate several areas of uncertainty in management of hypertension in the PD population.

RESUMO
PURPOSE: The purpose of this research was to test the validity and reliability of the Indonesian version of the Dietary Sodium Restriction Questionnaire (DSRQ-I) among patients with hypertension. METHODS: The cross-sectional study enrolled hypertensive patients from a cardiac outpatient department in Indonesia using convenience sampling. Eligible patients received a demographic questionnaire and DSRQ-I during a one-month period of data collection. Content and construct analysis examined the validity, whereas internal consistency assessment checked reliability. Participation required 10-15 minutes on average. RESULTS: One hundred thirty-five patients participated: mostly females (54.1%) and married (82.9%) with mean age of 58.18 ± 10.44 years. The item of content validity index was .97, and subscale content validity index was .81 for DSRQ-I. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin test gave a value of .83, indicating adequate sampling, and the Bartlett's test of sphericity reached significant result (p < .001). The principal component analysis indicated three components, with 64.2% explaining variance, including perceived behavioral control (35.5%), attitude (19.3%), and subjective norm (9.4%). Confirmatory factor analysis produced a parsimonious model on the three-factor outcome by removing a single item. The indices of good fit model was achieved at χ2/df = 2.17, goodness fit index = .85, root mean square error of approximation = .09, standardized root mean square means = .07, and Bentler comparative fit index = .90 (p < .001). Cronbach's alpha coefficients for attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control were .85, .87, and .85, respectively. All interitem and item-total correlations indicated adequate outcome and acceptable result. Consequently, 15 items were determined reliable measurement and included in the final version of DSRQ-I. CONCLUSION: The DSRQ-I is a valid and reliable instrument to measure facilitators and barrier of sodium restriction among hypertensive patients in Indonesia.
