Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Changes in nocturnal systolic blood pressure

    Comparison of blood pressure measured by 24 hour blood pressure measurements at baseline conditions (after two weeks of usual diet) and intervention (after two weeks of dietary sodium restriction)

    from day 14 to day 28

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Changes in day (systolic and diastolic) and 24h blood pressure (systolic and diastolic)

    from day 14 to day 28

  • Changes in number of nocturnal pauses in breathing (apnoea hypopnoea index, AHI)

    from day 14 to day 28

  • Changes in day:night sodium urinary sodium excretion

    from day 14 to day 28

  • Changes in urinary excretion of aquaporin-2 (U-AQP2) og epithelial sodium channel (u-ENaCɣ)

    from day 14 to day 28

  • Changes in endothelial function (nitric oxide (NO), erythrocyte sodium sensitivity)

    from day 14 to day 28
