Mashup Score: 3Reducing daily salt intake in China by 1 g could prevent almost 9 million cardiovascular events by 2030: a modelling study - 2 year(s) ago
Introduction In China, salt intake is among the highest in the world (~11 g/day) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) accounts for 40% of deaths. We estimated the potential impact of reducing salt intake on CVD events in China, via systolic blood pressure (SBP). Methods To develop our model, we extracted the effect of salt reduction on SBP from a meta-regression of randomised trials and a population…
