Usage of table salt and risk of all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality among patients with diabetes: a national population-based cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

A lower dietary sodium intake has been associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in the general population. However, the evidence is less clear in diabetic patients. The study aims to investigate whether the usage of table salt is associated with all-cause and CVD mortality among individuals with diabetes.

Methods

In this prospective cohort study, participants with diabetes from the U.S. National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey (NHANES) 2003-2018 were included. Weighted linear regression models were employed to assess the association between the usage of table salt and dietary sodium intake. Weighted Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to assess the association between the usage of table salt and all-cause
