Key Points: Sodium reduction over a 4-week period decreased eGFR. Combining sodium reduction with the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension diet resulted in larger reductions in eGFR. Changes in diastolic BP seem partially responsible for the observed dietary effects.
Background: A potassium-rich Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet combined with low sodium reduces BP. However, the effects of sodium reduction in combination with the DASH diet on kidney function are unknown. We determined the effects of sodium reduction and the DASH diet, on eGFR using cystatin C.
Methods: DASH-sodium was a controlled, feeding study in adults with elevated or stage 1 hypertension, randomly assigned to the DASH or a control diet. On their assigned diet, participants consumed each of three sodium levels for 30 days after a 2-week run-in period of a high sodium-control diet. The three sodium levels were low (50 mmol/d), medium (100 mmol/d), and high (150 mmol/d). The primary outcome was change in eGFR based on cystatin C.
Results: Cystatin C was measured in 409 of the original 412 participants, of which 207 were assigned the DASH diet and 202 to the control diet. Compared with control, the DASH diet did not affect eGFR (=−0.96 ml/min per 1.73 m; 95% confidence interval [CI], −2.74 to 0.83). By contrast, low versus high sodium intake decreased eGFR (=−2.36 ml/min per 1.73 m; 95% CI, −3.64 to −1.07). Together, compared with the high sodium-control diet, the low sodium-DASH diet decreased eGFR by 3.10 ml/min per 1.73 m (95% CI, −5.46 to −0.73). This effect was attenuated with adjustment for diastolic BP and 24-hour urinary potassium excretion.
Conclusions: A combined low sodium-DASH diet reduced eGFR over a 4-week period. Future research should focus on the effect of these dietary interventions on subclinical kidney injury and their long-term effect on progression to CKD.

To evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of the copper bianstone scraping combined with Chinese modified termination hypertension dietary therapy program by comparing and analyzing the improvement of blood pressure, blood lipids and blood glucose in hypertensive patients who received copper bianstone scraping combined with Chinese modified termination hypertension dietary therapy intervention. We selected 160 cases of hypertensive patients from July 2022 to March 2024 for the study. They were divided into 80 cases in the comparison group and 80 cases in the observation group according to whether or not they underwent copper bianstone scraping combined with Chinese modified dietary therapy for termination of hypertension.

Background: In 2019, 77% of women and 82% of men with hypertension had uncontrolled hypertension worldwide. Uncontrolled hypertension can cause stroke, myocardial infarction, heart failure, renal failure, dementia, blindness, and death. However, most of the studies used the previous seventh joint national committee classification to classify hypertensive patients as either controlled or uncontrolled.
