Brain scans reveal salt sensors in hypertension mystery

NCT ID NCT06094816

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study uses MRI to watch how the brain reacts to a sudden increase of salt in the blood. Researchers will compare people whose blood pressure changes with salt intake to those whose blood pressure stays steady. The goal is to understand which brain regions sense salt and how they work, not to test a new treatment.
