Figure 1 Means (95% CI) of average systolic and diastolic BP SDS in age- and sex-specific tertiles of urinary and dietary markers of habitual dietary acid load in 257 prepubertal children. (a–c) Results for systolic BP SDS; (d–f) results for diastolic BP SDS; Panel a and d refer to NAE, panel b and e to uPRAL, and panel c and f to dPRAL as the predictor. The r and P indicate Pearson s correlation coefficients and corresponding P-values obtained from analyses with dietary acid load and BP SDS as continuous variables. BP, blood pressure; CI, confidence interval; dPRAL, dietary potential renal acid load; NAE, net acid excretion; SDS, s.d. score; uPRAL, urinary potential renal acid load.
