Sodium

HESI: General Population (2014)

• Intervention
  What is the association (or relationship) of changing sodium intake level on all-cause mortality and hospitalization in community-living adults?

  • Conclusion
    There is limited evidence that sodium intakes of greater than 3,400mg and less than 2,900mg have increased incidence on all-cause mortality and hospitalization in community-living adults. 
  • Grade: III
    • Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
    • Grade II is Fair;
    • Grade III is Limited/Weak;
    • Grade IV is Expert Opinion Only;
    • Grade V is Not Assignable.
    • High (A) means we are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect;
    • Moderate (B) means we are moderately confident in the effect estimate;
    • Low (C) means our confidence in the effect estimate is limited;
    • Very Low (D) means we have very little confidence in the effect estimate.
    • Ungraded means a grade is not assignable.

  What is the association (or relationship) of changing sodium intake level on non-fatal CVD events in community-living adults?
