About this study

A reduction of dietary sodium intake reduces blood pressure and risk of cardiovascular disease.

Read the detailed description

A reduction of dietary sodium intake reduces blood pressure and risk of cardiovascular disease. Patients with hypertension resistant of antihypertensive treatment have a high frequency of non-dipping and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). The aim of this project is to analyse the effect of dietary sodium restriction on nocturnal blood pressure and nocturnal pauses in breathing in this patients population.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes in nocturnal systolic blood pressure

    Comparison of blood pressure measured by 24 hour blood pressure measurements at baseline conditions (after two weeks of usual diet) and intervention (after two weeks of dietary sodium restriction)

    Measured: from day 14 to day 28

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Changes in day (systolic and diastolic) and 24h blood pressure (systolic and diastolic)

    Comparison of blood pressure measured by 24h blood pressure measurements at baseline conditions (after two weeks of usual diet) and intervention (after two weeks of dietary sodium restriction)

    Measured: from day 14 to day 28

  2. Changes in number of nocturnal pauses in breathing (apnoea hypopnoea index, AHI)

    Comparison of apnoea hypopnoea index measured by cardio respiratory monitoring at baseline conditions (after two weeks of usual diet) and intervention (after two weeks of dietary sodium restriction)

    Measured: from day 14 to day 28

  3. Changes in day:night sodium urinary sodium excretion

    Comparison of baseline conditions (after two weeks of usual diet) and intervention (after two weeks of dietary sodium restriction)

    Measured: from day 14 to day 28

  4. Changes in urinary excretion of aquaporin-2 (U-AQP2) og epithelial sodium channel (u-ENaCɣ)

    Comparison of baseline conditions (after two weeks of usual diet) and intervention (after two weeks of dietary sodium restriction)

    Measured: from day 14 to day 28

  5. Changes in endothelial function (nitric oxide (NO), erythrocyte sodium sensitivity)

    Comparison of biomarkers from blood samples drawn at baseline conditions (after two weeks of usual diet) and intervention (after two weeks of dietary sodium restriction)

    Measured: from day 14 to day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dietary sodium restriction in people with Sodium Imbalance and Nocturnal Blood Pressure, run by Jesper Norgaard Bech at 2 sites in Denmark.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Denmark. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in nocturnal systolic blood pressure (time frame: from day 14 to day 28). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06022133, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Sep 2023.
