Relationship between dietary sodium intake, hemodynamics, and cardiac mass in SHR and WKY rats

Relationship between dietary sodium intake, hemodynamics, and cardiac mass in SHR and WKY rats

Changes in cardiac mass, systemic hemodynamics and organ blood flows were determined in spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats to study the effects of sodium intake on circulatory homeostasis and cardiac structure. The data indicate that the high-sodium diet increa...

Zusammenfassung:Changes in cardiac mass, systemic hemodynamics and organ blood flows were determined in spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats to study the effects of sodium intake on circulatory homeostasis and cardiac structure. The data indicate that the high-sodium diet increased cardiac mass further in SHR rats and in the WKY rats independent of arterial pressure changes.
