Smyth et al. examined the association between urinary sodium and potassium excretion and adverse renal outcomes in adults at high cardiovascular risk. They found no association between urinary sodium excretion and adverse renal outcomes, but a reduced odds of adverse renal outcomes with higher urinary potassium excretion. It will be important to ascertain whether this finding holds true in individuals free from vascular disease and diabetes, as well as in patients with chronic kidney disease.
史密斯等人研究了心血管疾病高风险成年人尿钠和钾排泄与不良肾脏结局之间的关联。他们发现尿钠排泄与不良肾脏结局之间无关联,但尿钾排泄增加会降低不良肾脏结局的几率。确定这一发现对于无血管疾病和糖尿病的个体以及慢性肾病患者是否同样适用将非常重要。
