Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The relationship between salt intake and blood pressure has been noteworthy for a long time. Nevertheless, the complex hemodynamic alterations associated with the salt-induced blood pressure changes have become clear only quite recently. Despite this knowledge, the concept of Guyton, which postulates that any increase in blood pressure should lead to a pressure natriuresis normalising blood pressure over the long term is still valid. As a conclusion, we have to remember that an elevation of arterial pressure can only be maintained if renal function as indicated by pressure natriuresis is impaired. |
