Reduction of salt intake {51111166}

Shared Reference Notes

• [1.1] 
  - Sodium reduction > increased all 8 SCFAs, among which the increases in 2-methylbutyrate, butyrate, hexanoate, isobutyrate, and valerate > statistically significant. - Increased SCFAs were associated with decreased blood pressure and improved arterial compliance. There were significant sex differences of SCFAs in response to sodium reduction. - When stratified by sex, the increases in butyrate, hexanoate, isobutyrate, isovalerate, and valerate were significant in females only not in males. - In females, changes in isobutyrate, isovalerate, and 2-methylbutyrate were inversely associated with reduced blood pressures. - Increased valerate was associated with decreased carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity.
