Where did the study show that people who consumed too little sodium had a higher risk of mortality?

>In support of that a recent (2011), large study, published in the Archives of Internal Medicine (Elena V. Kuklina, M.D., and colleagues at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Emory University, and the Harvard School of Public Health) showed that people who consumed (too) little sodium, much like those who consumed too much sodium, had a higher risk of mortality.
