Survival curves of sham-operated (SHAM) and ovariectomized (OVX) salt-sensitive (SS) and salt-resistant (SR) rats. After being weaned, all rats were maintained on a low-sodium diet (<0.13% NaCl). Ovariectomies or sham surgeries were conducted at 6 wk old. Shown are survival curves of SR-SHAM (n = 7), SR-OVX (n = 6), SS-SHAM (n = 7), and SS-OVX (n = 5) cohorts expressed as the percentage of animals that survived through 10 mo of age; SS/JrHsd/Env, salt-sensitive rats developed by John Rapp, distributed by Harlan, and purchased from Envigo; SR/JrHsd/Env, salt-resistant rats developed by John Rapp, distributed by Harlan, and purchased from Envigo.
