Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of high-sodium and low-sodium intakes on blood pressure and other related variables in human subjects with idiopathic hypertension
TL;DR: The "sALT-sensitive" patients retained more sodium on the high-sodium diet than did the patients who were not sensitive to salt ("nonsalt-sensitive"); accordingly, sodium induced more weight gain in the salt-sensitive patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simple method for estimating 24 h urinary sodium and potassium excretion from second morning voiding urine specimen in adults.
TL;DR: An assessment was made of the extent sodium (Na) and potassium (K) intake can be estimated from Na, K and creatinine (Cr) content of a second morning voiding urine (SMU) specimen collected within 4 h after the first voiding upon awakening but before breakfast in 159 clinically healthy, free‐living individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The mathematical definition of nondipping, ie, having a night-day ratio of 100% or more for systolic and diastolic BPs, closely approximated the 95th percentiles of the night- day ratio in normotensive subjects, and is to be preferred in the definition of dipping status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antihypertensive effect of Valyl-Tyrosine, a short chain peptide derived from sardine muscle hydrolyzate, on mild hypertensive subjects
Terukazu Kawasaki,Eiji Seki,Katsuhiro Osajima,M. Yoshida,K. Asada,Toshiro Matsui,Yutaka Osajima +6 more
TL;DR: Valyl-Tyrosine appeared to have a significant antihypertensive effect on mild hypertensive subjects via ang i-converting enzyme inhibition, as well as shr, but no adverse effects could be detected at all.
Journal ArticleDOI
Guidelines for diagnosis and management of cardiovascular sequelae in Kawasaki disease
Terukazu Kawasaki,Kensuke Karasawa,Kensuke Harada,Hirohisa Kato,Teiji Akagi,Soichiro Kitamura,Tsutomu Saji,Atsuko Suzuki,Kiyoshi Baba,Hisayoshi Fujiwara,Mamoru Ayusawa,Tomoo Okada,Shunichi Ogawa,Hirotaro Ogino,Kazuhiko Nishigaki +14 more
TL;DR: The diagnostic guidelines may be useful in adults with an unknown history of Kawasaki disease when the illness is suspected from the morphology of any coronary artery aneurysms, and the classification of the size and severity of coronary arteries using standardized criteria was addressed.
