Abstract

Veliki broj studija pokazao je da je povećan unos soli značajan faktor rizika kako za kardiovaskularne bolesti tako i za hipertenziju. Cilj ovog rada bio je istražiti postoji li povezanost povećanog unosa soli s hipertenzijom u općoj populaciji. U studiju je uključeno 93 slučajno odabranih ispitanika iz dvije ordinacije obiteljske medicine. Podaci o prehrambenom statusu dobiveni su upitnikom i antropometrijskim mjerenjem, arterijski tlak je određen kao mjera rizika za hiperetenziju, a količina unešene soli metodom sakupljanja 24- satnog urina. Rezultati su pokazali da nije bilo povezanosti unosa soli s hipertenzijom ali, pronađena je povezanost unosa soli s pretilošću. Ovi rezultati ukazuju da bi jedan od ciljeva edukativnih programa o prehrani trebao biti usmjeren ka smanjenju unosa kuhinjske soli, te smanjenju pretilosti. Također, rezultati upućuju na potrebu za većom uključenošću nutricionista/dijetetičara u rad primarne zdravstvene zaštite.

Abstract (english)

A large number of studies have shown that an increased intake of salt is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease, as well as hypertension. The purpose of this study was to investigate if a link can be established between increased salt intake and hypertension in the general population. The study was done on 93 randomly selected participants from two family practices. The data on dietary habits was obtained via a survey, as well as anthropometric measurements, arterial pressure was used as a risk predictor for hypertension, and the amount of ingested salt was determined by 24-hour urine samples. The results showed there was no link between salt intake and hypertension, but a link between salt intake and obesity was found. These results show that one of the goals of nutrition education programs should be to emphasize the reduction of table salt intake, thus reducing obesity. The results also indicate the need for greater involvement of nutritionist/dietetion in primary health care.
