Associations between metabolic syndrome and urinary Na-to-K ratio and glomerular filtration rate in middle-aged adults regardless of Na and K intakes

Background Intake of Na-to-K ratio (I-Na/K), urinary Na-to-K ratio (U-Na/K), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) have been reported to be risk factors of metabolic syndrome (MetS), but results are inconsistent. We examined the hypothesis that U-Na/K, GFR, and a preference for salty foods...

Zusammenfassung:Background Intake of Na-to-K ratio (I-Na/K), urinary Na-to-K ratio (U-Na/K), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) have been reported to be risk factors of metabolic syndrome (MetS), but results are inconsistent. We examined the hypothesis that U-Na/K, GFR, and a preference for salty foods are associated with MetS risk and the hypothesis in 8540 adults aged over 40 years without chronic kidney disease. Methods Participants were categorized using a U-Na/K of
