简要总结
Salt sensitive hypertension is a significant health problem worldwide and a primary modifiable risk factor for renal, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular diseases. Yet, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.
The proposed study determines how renal oxygenation and substrate metabolism differs between individuals with and without salt sensitivity, with the ultimate goal of identifying mechanisms, diagnostic criteria, and treatment strategies for salt sensitive hypertension.
详细描述
Seventy subjects will be enrolled and randomized to start either a low sodium diet (1200 mg/day) or high sodium diet (>4200 mg/day) for two weeks. After completion of two weeks, subjects will be switched to the 'other' diet for two weeks after a one-week wash-out. During the screening visit, subject's daily sodium intake will be assessed using multiple methods and further dietary information will be collected to prepare customized low sodium meals. During low sodium diet period, subjects will be supplied with food and will be asked to keep food logs. At the end of two-week period, the study activities described below will be carried out including BOLD MRI imaging along with imaging techniques to assess renal oxygenation levels and perfusion. During high sodium diet period, subjects will be either supplemented with sodium chloride tablets or high sodium foods to achieve a daily sodium intake above 4200 mg/day. If subjects already consume over 4200 mg/day of sodium, no changes will be made to their diet and assessment of oxygenation (BOLD MRI) and perfusion will take place after two weeks.
At the end of high sodium diet, 18 subjects will have renal vein sampling performed (this will be equally divided between salt-sensitive and salt-insensitive subjects and per subject preference as all may not want to have renal vein sampling). Subjects will be classified into salt sensitive or insensitive at the end of low sodium diet period based on BP response for further data analyses.

结局指标
主要结局
Changes in renal regional tissue oxygenation in response to salt intake and salt sensitivity
时间窗: 6 weeks
70 subjects (\~50% women, \~50% AA) will be recruited and salt sensitivity will be determined (defined as ≥8 mmHg decrease in systolic BP on a low Na+ diet). BOLD-MRI and MRI with arterial spin labeling (MRI-ASL) will be performed to assess renal regional tissue oxygenation and perfusion at baseline and after high and low Na+ diets.
次要结局
- Changes in renal metabolites in response to a high sodium diet among individuals who are salt-sensitive versus insensitive(6 weeks)
