Australian teens have high salt and low fruit and vegetable intake. This poor dietary pattern can raise the sodium to potassium ratio (Na:K) in urine which is a marker that predicts high blood pressure (BP) and heart disease. At puberty, teens show a natural rise in BP which may be exacerbated by a high urinary Na:K. As no data directly support this hypothesis, this study will explore the impact the urinary Na:K has upon BP and heart disease risk in a cohort of Australian adolescents.

澳大利亚青少年的食盐含量较高，水果和蔬菜的摄入量较低。这种不良的饮食模式会提高尿液中的钠钾比 (Na:K)，这是预测高血压 (BP) 和心脏病的标志物。在青春期，青少年的血压会自然升高，而高尿 Na:K 水平可能会加剧这种情况。由于没有数据直接支持这一假设，本研究将探讨尿 Na:K 对一组澳大利亚青少年的血压和心脏病风险的影响。
