“…Moinuddin et al . 11 showed that daily salt intake of prehypertensives (21.2 ± 1.2 g/day) was significantly greater than normotensive subjects (9.0 ± 0.5 g/day). This result is similar to our study, which found that compared with participants without prehypertension, those with prehypertension tended to have higher urinary sodium excretions (5.20 ± 1.38 vs .…”

“…Several mechanisms, including endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, inflammation, insulin resistance, and neurogenically mediated increase in peripheral resistance, contribute to the harmful effects of dietary salt 9 , 10 . Recent studies have shown that increased salt intake may be associated with the pathogenesis of prehypertension 11 – 13 . However, data on the association between dietary salt intake and prehypertension are lacking.…”

High uric acid (UA) level and high salt intake are reportedly associated with cardiovascular disease. This study investigated the association between UA and urinary sodium excretion, as well as its interaction on the risk of prehypertension. A total of 1869 participants without hypertension were recruited from a previously established cohort in Shaanxi Province, China. The participants were classified as normotensive or prehypertensive on the basis of their blood pressure. Increasing quartiles of sodium excretion were associated with high urinary UA/creatinine levels in prehypertensive participants. Estimated sodium excretion positively correlated with urinary UA/creatinine excretions in the prehypertensive group. In addition, the multivariate-adjusted odds ratios for prehypertension compared with normotension were 1.68 (1.27–2.22) for sodium excretion and 1.71 (1.21–2.42) for serum UA. Increasing sodium excretion and serum UA were associated with higher risk of prehypertension. Compared with the lowest quartiles, the highest sodium excretion and serum UA quartiles entailed 3.48 times greater risk of prehypertension. Sodium excretion is associated with urinary UA excretion in prehypertensive participants. The present study shows that high levels of salt intake and serum UA simultaneously are associated with a higher risk of prehypertension.

“…8,9 Evidence suggests that obesity is related to prehypertension etiology, a state of excess adipose tissue in the body. 10,11 Obesity's prevalence in people aged 18 years old and above in Indonesia has increased by 11.3% in one decade (2007-2018). 2 The increase could lead to a higher presence of prehypertension, hypertension, and increased cardiovascular risk.…”

The state of prehypertension that is often neglected in young adults is not inferior to hypertension in contributing to a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. Several simple anthropometric indices may be used as prehypertension prognostic tools, including Body Mass Index (BMI), Body Shape Index (ABSI), Waist Circumference (WC), Weight to Height Ratio (WHtr), and Body Roundness Index (BRI). This study aimed to compare several anthropometric examinations for detecting prehypertension in male medical students. The cross-sectional study design was conducted on 107 male medical students. Direct measurements of the respondents were carried out with blood pressure data collection and anthropometric examination. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AROC) analysis with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to assess all anthropometric measures’ discriminatory power to assess the risk of prehypertension in the participants. Participants with prehypertension were relatively older and had less active physical activity than normotensive (p<0.05). The mean BMI, BRI, WC, and WHtR were significantly higher in the prehypertensive group than in the normotensive group. However, ABSI was not showing any relationship with blood pressure. The process with 95% CI of blood pressure classification related to anthropometric measures indicates that BMI showed the highest AROC values for the prehypertensive state (AROC: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.63–0.82), and WC had the lowest AROCs (AROC: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.52–0.63). BMI, BRI, WC, and WHtr may be applied as prognostic assessments for prehypertension states in young adult males.

“…[ 1 ] Although few studies from India have attempted to estimate the impact of prehypertension, those studies were limited in application because of their focus on opportunistic screening in facility-based and industrial settings, thereof the majority participatory population being young adult males. [ 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 ] Moreover, previous studies have reported the variations based on demographic characteristics and studies which looked into the role of behavioral and lifestyle factors in prehypertension are scarce.…”

Assessment of Anthropometric Indices, Salt Intake and Physical Activity in the Aetiology of Prehypertension

Abstract: Exercise capacity was found decreased in pre-hypertensives and they have high daily salt intake. Also, weight and age emerged as independent risk factors for SBP and DBP respectively.
