Will introduction of tolvaptan change clinical practice in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease?

abstract：:Modern dietary habits are characterized by high-sodium and low-potassium intakes, each of which was correlated with a higher risk for hypertension. In this study, we examined whether long-term variations in the intake of sodium and potassium induce lasting changes in the plasma concentration of circulating steroids by...
