Influence of warning labels on daily salt consumption and arterial pressure
se unos može bitno smanjiti, no postignuti uspjeh je ipak nedostatan, a dugoročni ishodi nepoznati. Summary Excessive salt intake is a major cardiovascular risk factor. Examined was the impact of enhanced warning on daily salt intake in Mostar (Bosnia and Herzegovina). A sample of 150 treated hypertensives was randomized in a group receiving a leaflet about the harmful effects of excessive salt, and a group receiving in addition warning stickers for household salt containers. Blood pressure (BP) and 24 h urinary sodium excretion (Na24) were measured at the start of the trial, and one and two months later.
