Association between dietary sodium, potassium, and the sodium-to-potassium ratio and mortality: A 10-year analysis.

ABSTRACT: There is inconclusive evidence of the association between dietary sodium, potassium, and the sodium-to-potassium ratio and all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality. To investigate the association between dietary sodium, potassium, and the sodium-to-potassium ratio and all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality risks. Data from 143,050 adult participants were analyzed from prospective 10-year community-based cohort analysis. Dietary sodium, potassium, and the sodium-to-potassium ratio at baseline were assessed by a food frequency questionnaire. In Cox proportional hazards regression models, the association between dietary sodium, potassium, and their ratio and all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality was estimated using hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals, and their p
