The relationship between the urine and plasma sodium levels and blood pressure was investigated in patients with essential hypertension.
In our study, 55 patients with essential hypertension and 15 healthy control subjects were taken. Of the 55 patients taken into study, 37 were female and 18 were male; the mean age was 51.0 ± 9.4 years. Of the 15 people with normal blood pressure, 8 were female and 7 were male, the mean age, was 52.4 ± 10.2.
As a result of this study although, urinary sodium levels were found slightly higher in patients with essential hypertension , it was statistically insignifıcant (p >0.05). There was alsa no signifıcant difference between the two groups when plasma sodium levels were considered.
