Sodium Lowering Vascular Effects Trial (NCT05388032)
A Mechanistic Trial of Dietary Sodium Reduction on Vascular Structure and Function
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The proposed mechanistic trial will test the effect of dietary sodium reduction on cardiac and vascular structure and function in those with elevated blood pressure or hypertension. Findings from this study will fill the knowledge gap on the underlying mechanisms of dietary sodium intake on cardiovascular disease risk in addition to blood pressure and could provide further evidence on sodium reduction for the prevention of cardiovascular disease.
