回顾了关于世界人口横截面的血压水平和盐分摄入量的文献。回归和相关分析表明,这些变量之间存在直接的线性关系。在三对遗传相关的原始种群中,每组中文化适应程度越高的人群血压越高,盐的摄入量也越高。在文化同质性较高的人群中,尤其是日本人和台湾人,食盐摄入量似乎是影响血压的主要环境因素。讨论了非洲人口与经济类型的关系,农业群体的血压高于猎人或牧民。有迹象表明,农业群体的盐分摄入量更高。这表明,由于过去在热带民族中选择了更好的保盐能力,种群对钠的敏感性有所不同。这进一步表明,美国和西印度群岛黑人在适量摄入盐分时血压升高,可能是因为他们对这种矿物质的病理影响更敏感。
The literature on blood pressure level and salt intake in a cross-section of the world's populations is reviewed. Regression and correlation analysis suggest a direct linear relationship between these variables. In three pairs of genetically related primitive populations, higher blood pressures are observed in the more acculturated group in each set, with salt intake being higher in these as well. In more culturally homogeneous groups, particularly Japanese and Taiwanese, salt intake appears to be the major environmental factor affecting blood pressure. African populations are discussed in relation to type of economy, blood pressures being higher in agricultural groups than in hunters or herders. There are indications that salt intake is higher for agricultural groups. It is suggested that populations vary in their sensitivity to sodium as a result of past selection for superior salt retaining capacity in tropical peoples. It is further suggested that high blood pressures of American and West Indian blacks on moderate salt intake may be explained by a greater sensitivity to the proposed pathological effects of this mineral."
