IRAS 23385+6053 is a Young Stellar Object with luminosity 1:6 10 4 L at a kinematic distance of 4.9 kpc. This candidate precursor of an ultracompact Hii region is associated with a millimeter source detected at the JCMT but is undetected at centimeter wavelengths with the VLA. We observed this source with the OVRO millimeter array at 3.4 mm in the continuum, HCO + (1 ! 0), H 13 CO + (1 ! 0) and...

OBJECTIVE High sodium (HS) diet is associated with hypertension (HT) and insulin resistance (IR). We evaluated whether HS diet was associated with a dysregulation of cortisol production and metabolic syndrome (MetS). PATIENTS AND MEASUREMENTS We recruited 370 adults (18-85 years, BMI 29·3 ± 4·4 kg/m(2) , 70% women, 72% HT, 61% MetS). HS diet (urinary sodium >150 mEq/day) was observed in 70% o...
