Blood pressure (BP)-related diseases, par-ticularly, hypertension, coronary heart disease, heart failure and stroke are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Worldwide, elevated BP accounts for 47% of coronary heart disease cases and 54% of stroke incidences. 1 Moreover, about 13% of total deaths worldwide are a result of hypertension. The excessive intake of salt has a major role in the pathogenesis of hypertension. To date, over 50 randomized trials have tested the effects of sodium reduction on BP in adults, with the overall consensus that sodium intake has a statistically significant, progressive and dose-dependent relationship with BP. A daily modest reduction of 100mmol (6g of salt) has been shown to significantly reduce systolic and diastolic BP in both the hypertensive and normotensive subjects. 2 In this issue of Hypertension Research, Izumiyama et al. 3 show that estrogen replacement has a cardioprotective function in ovariectomized females under a highsalt diet (HSD). Furthermore, they report on the mechanism whereby coupling factor 6 (CF6) overexpression increases salt-sensitive hypertension, resulting in enhanced cardiac systolic dysfunction.
