“…The US has established a large-scale national database for regular BP of adolescents, which effectively helps identify and appraise adolescents with abnormal BPs. A study in Spain adolescents showed there was a significant association between salt perception and BP [20]. However, current studies have not given the evidence on the relationship between sodium and blood pressure in early life [21].…”

BackgroundEssential hypertension mostly originates from children. Salt Sensitivity (SS) is regarded as the intermediate phenotype of essential hypertension. The present study investigated the effects of salt-sensitivity on evolution of blood pressure (BP) and development to hypertension from adolescents to youth.MethodsA baseline survey was carried out in 4,623 adolescents aged 6-15 years old in Hanzhong rural areas in 1987, 310 of whom(mean 9.2 years) were randomly recruited for determination of salt sensitivity using the tests of oral saline load and furosemide sodium-volume depletion. SS was diagnosed in 101 subjects while 209 were determined as non-salt-sensitive (NSS). We made a 18-year followed-up of the cohort in 2005.ResultsThe response rate for surviving baseline adolescents was 71.9%. At follow up, BP in youth with baseline SS was higher than that in NSS (SBP:122.9 ± 13.1 VS 117.3 ± 12.4, P < 0.01; DBP: 78.2 ± 10.4 VS 74.7 ± 10.8, P < 0.05). Longitudinal analysis of 18-year BP evolution, subjects in SS had greater Systolic BP change than subjects in NSS(19.6 ± 12.714.7 ± 12.2, P < 0.01). The incidence of hypertension in salt sensitive group was higher than that in NSS group (15.5% VS 6.3%, RR = 2.34, P < 0.05).ConclusionOur findings indicate that adolescents with higher BP salt-sensitivity have a higher rate of incident hypertension in youth. Salt sensitivity could be at high risk predisposing to development of hypertension from adolescents to youth.

“…Higher salt detection and recognition thresholds have been observed in subjects with hypertension or diabetes, elderly ones and those with high body mass index [11, 12]. Studies related to gustatory salt threshold in most cases have investigated its relationship with clinical profile and, less frequently, your association with sodium intake.…”

This study investigated the gustatory threshold for salt and its relationship with dietary salt intake among hypertensive (n = 54) and normotensive (n = 54) subjects. Salt intake was evaluated through 24-hour urinary sodium excretion and self-reported measures (discretionary salt, Sodium- Food Frequence Questionnaire (Na-FFQ), and 24-hour recall). Detection and recognition thresholds were higher among hypertensive subjects, as well as the total sodium intake. Detection and recognition thresholds were positively related to discretionary salt and total intake of the group as whole. Hypertensive and normotensive subjects presented positive correlations between taste sensitivity and the different measures of salt intake. To conclude, a positive correlation exists between taste threshold and salt intake and both seem to be higher among hypertensive subjects. The combined use of methods of self-report and assessment of taste thresholds can be useful in health promotion and rehabilitation programs, by screening subjects at higher risk of elevated salt intake and the critical dietary behaviors to be targeted as well to evaluate the result of targeted interventions.

“…Many researchers have reported the relationship between salt intake and blood pressure 1) and the relationship between hypertension 2,3,4) . There are also reports on diet and salt intake in the younger generation 5) . We also reported the results of the saltiness cognition threshold test conducted by Yakumo Study on the elderly 6,7) .…”

In Japan, salt reduction is encouraged to prevent high blood pressure. However, it is difficult to reduce salt, and good salt intake per day did not fail to the target value. In this study, we report a saltiness cognitive threshold test using female university students. The participant is 67 female university students. Participants were subjected to a salty cognitive threshold test using SALSAVE (manufactured by Advantech). The saltiness test started from a light taste and tried a strong taste in order. The salt concentration is 0.6%, 0.8%, 1.0%, 1.2%, 1.4%, 1.6%. We also conducted a questionnaire survey on eating habits. As a result, 62 out of 67 female university students who felt salty at a concentration of 0.6% were 92% of all participants. However, two female university students did not feel taste even with a salt concentration of 1.6%.They are 3% of all participants. As a result of the questionnaire survey, female university students answered that they had a good taste and secreted saliva well, and they usually had a rather light diet. In the future, we would like to increase the number of participants and compare more detailed dietary habits with SALSAVE results.
