“…Also, while the association between HT and obesity is well documented, the pathogenesis of increased blood pressure in the obese is poorly understood. Mechanisms such as hypervolemia causing increased cardiac output with failure of an appropriate reduction in systemic vascular resistance [17], stimulation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system [18] and increased salt intake due to increased caloric intake [19] have been proposed. In our patient group, only age was an independent factor related to HT.…”

“…Santos et al reported salt sensitivity in streptozotocin (STZ)-treated diabetic rats, but that was after 8 weeks of diabetes. 10 There is stronger evidence for salt sensitivity of blood pressure in Type II diabetes 11,12 and in longstanding Type I diabetes after the onset of microalbuminuria, 13,14 but it is not known how salt intake affects blood pressure at the very earliest stages of Type I diabetes in humans or in animals.…”
