Comparison of a salt check sheet with 24-h urinary salt excretion measurement in local residents.
Article in Hypertension research : official journal of the Japanese Society of Hypertension, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 29 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The salt check sheet developed by Tsuchihashi et al. is widely used in general practice to assess salt intake and the associated diets. However, its appropriateness for the general population has not been assessed alongside 24-h urinary salt excretion monitoring. Therefore, in local residents, we analyzed the correlation between check-sheet scores and 24-h urinary salt excretion levels to determine the appropriateness of the check sheet. We asked 176 local residents to complete the salt check sheet and provide urinary samples; the latter were obtained using a proportional sampling method over a 24-h period. One hundred and forty subjects completed the study (men/women: 23/117, mean±s.d. age: 52.7±19.6 years, blood pressure: 122.3±18.0/74.3±11.1 mm Hg), of whom 51 (36.4%) had hypertension. The total salt check-sheet scores were widely distributed (mean±s.d.: 11.1±4.2 points, range: 0-22 points), and the subjects were divided into the following groups on the basis of salt levels: 29.3% were 'low' (0-8 points), 42.8% were 'medium' (9-13 points), 23.6% were 'high' (14-19 points) and 4.3% were 'very high' (>20 points). The mean 24-h urinary salt excretion level was 8.5±3.3 g. The subjects with higher salt-intake levels tended to have increased 24-h urinary salt excretion levels, with significant differences between the three groups ('low' vs. 'medium' vs. 'high to very high' salt levels: 7.6±2.9 g vs. 8.4±2.8 g vs. 9.6±4.2 g, respectively; P=0.03). The total salt check-sheet scores significantly correlated with the 24-h urinary salt excretion levels (r=0.27; P<0.01). Thus, the salt check sheet is applicable for the general population.
