Abstract

Background: Hypertension is expected to reach 60% by 2025, largely in low- and middle-income countries, with 46% unaware and 42% undiagnosed and untreated Knowing the intricate association between salt and adult hypertension is vital for public health efforts. This scoping review explain how sodium affects blood pressure to prevent hypertension in adults and middle-aged people. Methods: Tricco and colleagues' approach was used to examine hypertension and salt in adults and middle-aged people. Assessment techniques, hypertension prevalence, and sodium-hypertension relationships were reviewed. A comprehensive PubMed and Google Scholar search of full-text academic journals spanning 2013-2023 found relevant studies. Two researchers extracted data separately and reached consensus for eligible trials. The search phrases were hypertension, salt, adult, middle-aged, and young adult. Results: There were 13 articles, found that nutritional intake evaluations, 24-hour urine collections, clinical and laboratory tests, physical measurements, blood pressure monitoring, and specific trials or interventions are assessment methods. Salt consumption and hypertension show different prevalence rates. Conclusion: These studies also describe the complex relationship between salt intake and hypertension in adults and middle-aged people. These studies effectively elucidate a complex correlation between salt consumption and hypertension among middle-aged and adult individuals, notwithstanding variations in measurement approaches and prevalence.

Abstract

Background: Anemia in children is a global health problem that can affect their cognitive and physical development. Various supplementation interventions have been used to treat anemia, including iron, folic acid, vitamins, and other minerals. Although some studies have shown improvements in anemia status, challenges in adherence to treatment and side effects remain barriers. Objective: This scoping review aims to map the available scientific evidence related to interventions and supplementation in children with anemia. This study identifies the types of interventions used, the target population, and the outcomes reported in the studies. Methods: A literature search was conducted through PubMed and Google Scholar with the keywords "anemia," "intervention," "supplement," and "children." Included studies were publications from 2015 to 2024 involving children who received supplementation interventions to see the impact of supplementation on anemia, cognition, and growth in children. Data from relevant studies were collected and analyzed based on study design, type of intervention, and reported outcomes. Results: From the analysis of 10 studies, various interventions were found, including iron supplementation, combinations of iron and other micronutrients (folic acid, vitamin A, vitamin C), and food-based interventions. All interventions showed increased hemoglobin levels and improved anemia status, but adherence to treatment remains a challenge, especially in daily regimens. Conclusion: Appropriate supplementation interventions effectively reduce the prevalence of anemia in children. However, the management of side effects and the improvement of adherence are aspects that need further attention for long-term success.
