  • knowledge perception and practice related to Sodium Intake among malaysian adults findings from the malaysian community salt study mycoss
    Journal of Health Population and Nutrition, 2021

    Abstract:

    BACKGROUND Excessive Intake of Sodium is a major public health concern. Information on knowledge, perception, and practice (KPP) related to Sodium Intake in Malaysia is important for the development of an effective salt reduction strategy. This study aimed to investigate the KPP related to Sodium Intake among Malaysian adults and to determine associations between KPP and dietary Sodium Intake. METHODS Data were obtained from Malaysian Community Salt Survey (MyCoSS) which is a nationally representative survey with proportionate stratified cluster sampling design. A pre-tested face-to-face questionnaire was used to collect information on socio-demographic background, and questions from the World Health Organization/Pan American Health Organization were adapted to assess the KPP related to Sodium Intake. Dietary Sodium Intake was determined using single 24-h urinary Sodium excretion. Respondents were categorized into two categories: normal dietary Sodium Intake ( 0.05). CONCLUSION The absence of significant associations between KPP and excessive dietary Sodium Intake suggests that salt reduction strategies should focus on Sodium reduction education includes measuring actual dietary Sodium Intake and educating the public about the source of Sodium. In addition, the relationship between the authority and food industry in food reformulation needs to be strengthened for effective dietary Sodium reduction in Malaysia.

  • Sodium Intake assessed by 24 h urine excretion and its relationship with anthropometric measurements in malaysian adults
    Journal of Health Population and Nutrition, 2021
    Co-Authors: Syafinaz Mohd Sallehuddin, Rashidah Ambak, Fatimah Othman, Lalitha Palaniveloo, Nur Shahida Abd Aziz, Noor Safiza Mohd Nor, Rasidah Jamaluddin, Azli Baharudin, Nor Azian Mohd Zaki
    Abstract:

    Background Sodium Intake is associated with anthropometric measurement including weight, waist circumference (WC), and body mass index (BMI). Higher Intake of Sodium is usually linked to higher risk of obesity among adults globally, especially in developing countries. This study aims to explore the probable relationship between Sodium Intake by 24-h urine excretion assessment and anthropometric measurement of adults in Malaysia. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted from October 2017 to March 2018 using a multi-stage stratified sampling method among Malaysian adults aged 18 years old and above. Sodium Intake was determined by 24-h urinary Sodium excretion, estimated from the respondents' 24-h urinary sample. Height was obtained based on standard protocol. Weight and WC were measured twice using validated anthropometric equipment and BMI was calculated according to World Health Organization (WHO) 1998 classification. Descriptive analysis was done to describe socio-demographic characteristics. A simple linear regression and multiple linear regression tests were done to assess the relationship of 24-h urinary excretion and anthropometric measurement. All statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 22.0. Results Of 1047 interviewed respondents, 798 respondents had done the 24-h urine collection (76.0% response rate). Majority was between 40 and 59 years old (43.5%) and married (77.7%). Simple linear regression showed a significant positive linear association between 24-h urinary excretion and household income, WC, and obese group. In the multivariate analysis, it was indicated that, an increase of 1 unit of BMI will significantly increase the Sodium Intake by 129.20 mg/dl and an increase of 1 cm of WC will significantly increase the Sodium Intake by 376.45 mg/dl. Conclusion Our study showed a positive significant relationship between Sodium Intake estimated by 24-h urinary Sodium excretion and BMI of Malaysian adults. More research is suggested on how Sodium control can potentially contribute to obesity prevention.

    Abstract:

    Background High Sodium Intake was an established risk factor for stroke and cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this study was to investigate factors associated with high Sodium Intake based on 24-h urinary Sodium excretion from the MyCoSS study. Methods The cross-sectional survey was conducted among adults aged 18 years and above in Malaysia. A multi-stage stratified sampling was used to represent nationally. Twenty-four-hour urine was collected from a total of 900 respondents. Indirect ion-selective electrode (ISE) method was used to measure Sodium Intake. Descriptive and logistic regression analysis was applied to determine factors associated with high Sodium Intake based on 24-h urinary Sodium excretion. Results A total of 798 respondents (76% response rate) completed the 24-h urine collection process. Logistic regression revealed that high Sodium Intake associated with obese [aOR 2.611 (95% CI 1.519, 4.488)], male [aOR 2.436 (95% CI 1.473, 4.030)], having a waist circumference of > 90cm for adult males [aOR 2.260 ( 95% CI 1.020, 5.009) and >80cm for adult females [aOR 1.210 (95% CI 0.556, 2.631)], being a young adult [aOR 1.977 (95% CI 1.094, 3.574)], and living in urban areas [aOR 1.701 (95% CI 1.094, 2.645)]. Conclusion Adults who are obese, have a large waist circumference, of male gender, living in urban areas, and belonging to the young adult age group were found to have higher Sodium Intake than other demographic groups. Hence, reduction of salt consumption among these high-risk groups should be emphasised to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Results A total of 798 respondents (76% response rate) completed the 24-h urine collection process. Logistic regression revealed that high Sodium Intake associated with obese [aOR 2.611 (95% CI 1.519, 4.488)], male [aOR 2.436 (95% CI 1.473, 4.030)], having a waist circumference of > 90cm for adult males [aOR 2.260 ( 95% CI 1.020, 5.009) and >80cm for adult females [aOR 1.210 (95% CI 0.556, 2.631)], being a young adult [aOR 1.977 (95% CI 1.094, 3.574)], and living in urban areas [aOR 1.701 (95% CI 1.094, 2.645)]. Conclusion Adults who are obese, have a large waist circumference, of male gender, living in urban areas, and belonging to the young adult age group were found to have higher Sodium Intake than other demographic groups. Hence, reduction of salt consumption among these high-risk groups should be emphasised to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

    Abstract:

    To study the effect of formulas on the estimation of dietary Sodium Intake (Sodium Intake) and its association with mortality, we analyzed the TOHP (Trials of Hypertension Prevention) follow-up dat...
