TABLE 3.

Comparison between the estimated 24‐hour urinary sodium excretion rate by the four spot sodium methods and the measured 24‐hour urinary sodium excretion (mmol/day)

Categories Measured 24‐hour USE Estimated 24‐hour USE by Kawasaki Estimated 24‐hour USE by Tanaka Estimated 24‐hour USE by INTERSALT
All participants 198.8±38.7 204.2±47.5# 158.0±29.6* 141.7±33.3*
Male (N = 126) 201.6±48.4 217.9±49.4* 158.2±29.9* 170.0±26.3*
Female (N = 197) 197.0±31.5 195.0±44.2 157.9±29.4* 123.8±23.4*
Mean difference Ref. 5.4 −40.8 −57.1
95% CI mean difference Ref. (0.8, 10.1) (−44.6, −36.9) (−61.9, −52.4)

Estimated 24‐hour urinary sodium excretion rate by Kawasaki, Tanaka, INTERSALT, SH2 method were compared with measured 24‐hour urinary sodium excretion.

Abbreviations: INTERSALT, International Cooperative Study on Salt, Other Factors, and Blood Pressure; USE, urinary sodium excretion.

The estimated values compared with measured values, P < .05 was statistically significant; * P < .001;# P < .05.
