Salt-sensitive trait of normotensive individuals is associated with altered autonomous cardiac regulation: a randomized controlled intervention study. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 2023; 325:F707-F716. [PMID: 37795535 DOI: 10.1152/ajprenal.00076.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Blood pressure (BP) responses to sodium intake show great variation, discriminating salt-sensitive (SS) from salt-resistant (SR) individuals. The pathophysiology behind salt sensitivity is still not fully elucidated. We aimed to investigate salt-induced effects on body fluid, vascular tone, and autonomic cardiac response with regard to BP change in healthy normotensive individuals. We performed a randomized crossover study in 51 normotensive individuals with normal body mass index and estimated glomerular filtration rate. Subjects followed both a low-Na+ diet (LSD, <50 mmol/day) and a high-Na+ diet (HSD, >200 mmol/day). Cardiac output, systemic vascular resistance (SVR), and cardiac autonomous activity, through heart rate variability and cross-correlation baroreflex sensitivity (xBRS), were assessed with noninvasive continuous finger BP measurements. In a subset, extracellular volume (ECV) was assessed by iohexol measurements. Subjects were characterized as SS if mean arterial pressure (MAP) increased ≥3 mmHg after HSD. After HSD, SS subjects (25%) showed a 6.1-mmHg (SD 1.9) increase in MAP. No differences between SS and SR in body weight, cardiac output, or ECV were found. SVR was positively correlated with Delta BP (r = 0.31, P = 0.03). xBRS and heart rate variability were significantly higher in SS participants compared to SR participants after both HSD and LSD. Sodium loading did not alter heart rate variability within groups. Salt sensitivity in normotensive individuals is associated with an inability to decrease SVR upon high salt intake that is accompanied by alterations in autonomous cardiac regulation, as reflected by decreased xBRS and heart rate variability. No discriminatory changes upon high salt were observed among salt-sensitive individuals in body weight and ECV.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Extracellular fluid expansion in normotensive individuals after salt loading is present in both salt-sensitive and salt-resistant individuals and is not discriminatory to the blood pressure response to sodium loading in a steady-state measurement. In normotensive subjects, the ability to sufficiently vasodilate seems to play a pivotal role in salt sensitivity. In a normotensive cohort, differences in sympathovagal balance are also present in low-salt conditions rather than being affected by salt loading. Whereas treatment and prevention of salt-sensitive blood pressure increase are mostly focused on renal sodium handling and extracellular volume regulation, our study suggests that an inability to adequately vasodilate and altered autonomous cardiac functioning are additional key players in the pathophysiology of salt-sensitive blood pressure increase.

Abstract
A high dietary sodium-consumption level is considered the most important lifestyle factor that can be modified to help prevent an increase in blood pressure and the development of hypertension. Despite numerous studies over the past decades, the pathophysiology explaining why some people show a salt-sensitive blood pressure response and others do not is incompletely understood. Here, a brief overview of the latest mechanistic insights is provided, focusing on the mononuclear phagocytic system and inflammation, the gut-kidney axis, and epigenetics. The article also discusses the effects of 3 types of novel drugs on salt-sensitive hypertension-sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, and aldosterone synthase inhibitors. The conclusion is that besides kidney-centered mechanisms, vasoconstrictor mechanisms are also relevant for both the understanding and treatment of this blood pressure phenotype.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Functional impairment of renal sodium handling and blood pressure (BP) homeostasis is an early characteristic manifestation of type 1 diabetes. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. METHODS Metabolic cages, radio-telemetry, immunoblotting, and electrophysiology were utilized to examine effects of high salt (8% NaCl, HS) intake on Na + /K + balance, BP, Na + -Cl - cotransporter (NCC) function, and basolateral K + channel activity in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) under diabetic conditions. RESULTS Improper Na + balance, hypernatremia, and a mild but significant increase in BP were found in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice in response to HS intake for 7 days. Compared to the vehicle, STZ mice showed increased Kir4.1 expression and activity in the DCT, a more negative membrane potential, higher NCC abundance, and enhanced hydrochlorothiazide-induced natriuretic effect. However, HS had no significant effect on basolateral Kir4.1 expression/activity and DCT membrane potential, or NCC activity under diabetic conditions, despite a downregulation in phosphorylated NCC abundance. In contrast, HS significantly downregulated the expression of Na + -H + exchanger 3 (NHE3) and cleaved epithelial sodium channel-γ in STZ mice, despite an increase in NHE3 abundance after STZ treatment. Kir4.1 deletion largely abolished STZ-induced upregulation of NCC expression and prevented BP elevation during HS intake. Interestingly, HS causes severe hypokalemia in STZ-treated kidney-specific Kir4.1 knockout (Ks-Kir4.1 KO) mice and lead to death within a few days, which could be attributed to a higher circulating aldosterone level. CONCLUSIONS We concluded that Kir4.1 is required for upregulating NCC activity and may be essential for developing salt-sensitive hypertension in early STZ-induced diabetes.

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibition does not improve the acute pressure natriuresis response in rats with type 1 diabetes. Exp Physiol 2023; 108:480-490. [PMID: 36644793 PMCID: PMC10103849 DOI: 10.1113/ep090849] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the central question of this study? Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce cardiovascular risk in patients with both diabetic and non-diabetic kidney disease: can SGLT2 inhibition improve renal pressure natriuresis (PN), an important mechanism for long-term blood pressure control, which is impaired in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)? What is the main finding and its importance? The SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin did not enhance the acute in vivo PN response in either healthy or T1DM Sprague-Dawley rats. The data suggest that the mechanism underpinning the clinical benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors on health is unlikely to be due to an enhanced natriuretic response to increased blood pressure. ABSTRACT Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) leads to serious complications including premature cardiovascular and kidney disease. Hypertension contributes importantly to these adverse outcomes. The renal pressure natriuresis (PN) response, a key regulator of blood pressure (BP), is impaired in rats with T1DM as tubular sodium reabsorption fails to down-regulate with increasing BP. We hypothesised that sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, which reduce cardiovascular risk in kidney disease, would augment the PN response in T1DM rats. Non-diabetic or T1DM (35-50 mg/kg streptozotocin i.p.) adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were anaesthetised (thiopental 50 mg/kg i.p.) and randomised to receive either dapagliflozin (1 mg/kg i.v.) or vehicle. Baseline sodium excretion was measured and then BP was increased by sequential arterial ligations to induce the PN response. In non-diabetic animals, the natriuretic and diuretic responses to increasing BP were not augmented by dapagliflozin. Dapagliflozin induced glycosuria, but this was not influenced by BP. In T1DM rats the PN response was impaired. Dapagliflozin again increased urinary glucose excretion but did not enhance PN. Inhibition of SGLT2 does not enhance the PN response in rats, either with or without T1DM. SGLT2 makes only a minor contribution to tubular sodium reabsorption and does not contribute to the impaired PN response in T1DM.

Abstract
Objective The COVID-19 pandemic has become a major public health concern over the past 3 years, leading to adverse effects on front-line healthcare workers. This study aimed to develop a Body Mass Index (BMI) change prediction model among doctors and nurses in North China during the COVID-19 pandemic, and further identified the predicting effects of lifestyles, sleep quality, work-related conditions, and personality traits on BMI change. Methods The present study was a cross-sectional study conducted in North China, during May-August 2022. A total of 5,400 doctors and nurses were randomly recruited from 39 COVID-19 designated hospitals and 5,271 participants provided valid responses. Participants' data related to social-demographics, dietary behavior, lifestyle, sleep, personality, and work-related conflicts were collected with questionnaires. Deep Neural Network (DNN) was applied to develop a BMI change prediction model among doctors and nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results Of participants, only 2,216 (42.0%) individuals kept a stable BMI. Results showed that personality traits, dietary behaviors, lifestyles, sleep quality, burnout, and work-related conditions had effects on the BMI change among doctors and nurses. The prediction model for BMI change was developed with a 33-26-20-1 network framework. The DNN model achieved high prediction efficacy, and values of R 2, MAE, MSE, and RMSE for the model were 0.940, 0.027, 0.002, and 0.038, respectively. Among doctors and nurses, the top five predictors in the BMI change prediction model were unbalanced nutritional diet, poor sleep quality, work-family conflict, lack of exercise, and soft drinks consumption. Conclusion During the COVID-19 pandemic, BMI change was highly prevalent among doctors and nurses in North China. Machine learning models can provide an automated identification mechanism for the prediction of BMI change. Personality traits, dietary behaviors, lifestyles, sleep quality, burnout, and work-related conditions have contributed to the BMI change prediction. Integrated treatment measures should be taken in the management of weight and BMI by policymakers, hospital administrators, and healthcare workers.

The effect of a low versus high sodium diet on blood pressure in diabetic patients: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of clinical trials. Food Sci Nutr 2023; 11:1622-1633. [PMID: 37051341 PMCID: PMC10084959 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.3212] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2022] [Revised: 12/07/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
There have been numerous clinical trials that have investigated the effect of sodium intake on blood pressure in diabetic patients. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the clinical trial studies performed on the effect of low sodium diet (LSD) versus high sodium diet (HSD) on blood pressure in diabetic patients. PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were systematically searched from database inception to July 10, 2021. Both type 1 and 2 diabetes was considered. Overall, there were 15 studies included in this meta-analysis. The weighted (WMD) mean difference with 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated using a random-effects model. Risk of bias in the studies was assessed based on the Cochrane collaboration tool and the quality of all the studies was considered as good. Overall, LSD significantly reduced SBP (systolic blood pressure) (WMD: -3.79 mmHg, 95% CI: -6.02, -1.56) and DBP (diastolic blood pressure) (WMD: -1.62 mmHg, 95% CI: -2.84, -0.40), in comparison with HSD, in diabetics. However, LSD had no significant effect on MAP (mean arterial pressure) in comparison with HSD (WMD: -1.81, 95%CI: -5.49, 1.87). Although subgroup analysis could not attenuate heterogeneity in SBP, subgroup analysis in DBP based on duration (≤1 week: WMD: -2.35, 95%CI: -3.69, -1.00, I 2 = 48.9%, p = 0.081, >1 week: WMD: -1.04, 95% CI: -2.83, 0.76, I 2 = 74.7%, p = 0.003) and study design (cross-over: WMD: -1.94, 95% CI: -2.71, -1.17, I 2 = 32.1%, p = 0.183, parallel: WMD: -2.17, 95% CI: -6.48, 2.13, I 2 = 82.4%, p = 0.001) successfully detected sources of heterogeneity. LSD significantly reduced SBP and DBP, however, had no effect on MAP, in comparison with HSD.

Abstract
The World Hypertension League Science of Salt health outcomes review series highlights high-quality publications relating to salt intake and health outcomes. This review uses a standardised method, outlined in previous reviews and based on methods developed by WHO, to identify and critically appraise published articles on dietary salt intake and health outcomes. We identified 41 articles published between September 2019 to December 2020. Amongst these, two studies met the pre-specified methodological quality criteria for critical appraisal. They were prospective cohort studies and examined physical performance and composite renal outcomes as health outcomes. Both found an association between increased/higher sodium intake and poorer health outcomes. Few studies meet criteria for high-quality methods. This review adds further evidence that dietary salt reduction has health benefits and strengthens evidence relating to health outcomes other than blood pressure and cardiovascular disease. We observe that most studies on dietary sodium do not have adequate methodology to reliably assess sodium intake and its association with health outcomes.

Potential Health Risks of Macro- and Microelements in Commercial Medicinal Plants Used to Treatment of Diabetes. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:6678931. [PMID: 33869633 PMCID: PMC8032537 DOI: 10.1155/2021/6678931] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2020] [Revised: 03/03/2021] [Accepted: 03/22/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Information on the content of medicinal plants used in the treatment of diabetes is scarce in the literature. The objectives of this study were to determine the levels of macroelements and microelements in three different medicinal plant species including the dry samples and teas from Bauhinia forficata, Eleusine Indica, and Orthosiphon stamineus and assess the human health risks of ingestion of the tea. The content of the dry samples and teas was obtained using the technique of inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES) after microwave digestion procedure. The hazard quotient (HQ) method was used to access the human health risks posed by heavy metal through tea consumption. The results revealed the presence of K, Mg, Na, P, Al, Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, Ni, and Se in dry samples and plant teas. The dry plants have high concentration of K and P. All dry plants contain Mg, Na, Al, Fe, Mn, Ni, Zn, and Cu above the limit permissible level set by the World Health Organization (WHO). All the hazard index (HI) values in plant teas were found to be within safe limits for human consumption (HI < 1). The plants may have possible action benefits when used in popular medicine. However, the ingestion through capsules prepared by enclosing a plant powder or teas can be harmful to the health of diabetics. The prescription of this plant for the treatment of diabetes should be treated with caution.

Transcapillary escape rate of 125I-albumin in relation to timing of blood sampling: the need for standardization. EJNMMI Radiopharm Chem 2021; 6:9. [PMID: 33591459 PMCID: PMC7886925 DOI: 10.1186/s41181-021-00125-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2020] [Accepted: 02/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Increased vascular permeability is an early sign of vascular damage and can be measured with the transcapillary escape rate of albumin (TERalb). Although TERalb has a multi-exponential kinetic model, most published TERalb data are based on mono-exponential kinetic models with variation in blood sampling schemes. Aim of this posthoc study was to evaluate the influence of variation in blood sampling schemes and the impact of mono- or bi-exponential analyses on the calculation of TERalb. Study participants were part of a cross-over intervention study protocol, investigating effects of sodium loading on blood pressure, endothelial surface layer and microcirculation. Multiple blood samples were drawn between 3 and 60 min after injection of radioactive iodide labeled human serum albumin (rHSA). Results In total 27 male participants with 54 measurements were included. For all participants the maximum serum radioactivity was reached within 20 min, while 85% of the participants had their maximum serum activity within 10 min. The TERalb calculated with the subsequently chosen T20–60 min reference scheme (6.19 ± 0.49%/h) was significantly lower compared to the TERalb of the T3–60 min, T5–60 min, and Tmax – 60 min schemes. There was no significant difference between the T20–60 min reference scheme and the T10–60 min and T15–60 min schemes. Bi-exponential kinetic modeling did not result in significant different observations compared to the mono-exponential kinetic analysis. Conclusions As there is variation in the timing of the maximum serum radioactivity of rHSA, blood sampling schemes starting before 10 min after administration of rHSA will result in a significant overestimation of TERalb. In addition, variation in kinetic modeling did not result in significant changes in TERalb. Therefore, we emphasize the need to standardize TERalb and for practical and logistical reasons advocate the use of a mono-exponential model with blood sampling starting 20 min after rHSA administration.

Distinct osmoregulatory responses to sodium loading in patients with altered glycosaminoglycan structure: a randomized cross-over trial. J Transl Med 2021; 19:38. [PMID: 33472641 PMCID: PMC7816310 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-021-02700-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2020] [Accepted: 01/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Background By binding to negatively charged polysaccharides called glycosaminoglycans, sodium can be stored in the body—particularly in the skin—without concurrent water retention. Concordantly, individuals with changed glycosaminoglycan structure (e.g. type 1 diabetes (DM1) and hereditary multiple exostosis (HME) patients) may have altered sodium and water homeostasis. Methods We investigated responses to acute (30-min infusion) and chronic (1-week diet) sodium loading in 8 DM1 patients and 7 HME patients in comparison to 12 healthy controls. Blood samples, urine samples, and skin biopsies were taken to investigate glycosaminoglycan sulfation patterns and both systemic and cellular osmoregulatory responses. Results Hypertonic sodium infusion increased plasma sodium in all groups, but more in DM1 patients than in controls. High sodium diet increased expression of nuclear factor of activated t-cells 5 (NFAT5)—a transcription factor responsive to changes in osmolarity—and moderately sulfated heparan sulfate in skin of healthy controls. In HME patients, skin dermatan sulfate, rather than heparan sulfate, increased in response to high sodium diet, while in DM1 patients, no changes were observed. Conclusion DM1 and HME patients show distinct osmoregulatory responses to sodium loading when comparing to controls with indications for reduced sodium storage capacity in DM1 patients, suggesting that intact glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis is important in sodium and water homeostasis. Trial registration These trials were registered with the Netherlands trial register with registration numbers: NTR4095 (https://www.trialregister.nl/trial/3933 at 2013-07-29) and NTR4788 (https://www.trialregister.nl/trial/4645 at 2014-09-12).
