1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background High sodium intake elevates blood pressure and thereby raises cardiovascular diseases ( CVD s). Sodium intake is high in northern China, including Shandong province where the SMASH (Shandong-Ministry of Health Action on Sodium and Hypertension) is currently underway. Methods and Results Blood pressure values and sodium intake measurements using 24-hour urinary excretion were collected from the 2011 SMASH baseline survey, which was conducted in 20 counties/districts using a multistage stratified cluster random sampling method. We derived cause-specific mortality from the Shandong Death Registration System ( SDRS ) during the same year and used population-attributable fraction to estimate annual CVD s deaths attributable to high sodium intake (mediated through elevated systolic blood pressure) and CVD deaths averted by achieving different sodium-reduction targets. Overall, 16 100 (95% uncertainty intervals, 11 000-22 600) CVD deaths among adults aged 25 to 69 years, including 5600 (4000-6500) for ischemic heart disease and 9000 (6700-11 600) for stroke, were attributable to higher sodium intake (2000 mg/day or 5.0 g/day of salt as a reference) in Shandong in 2011, accounting for 19.9% (13.7-25.0%) of total CVD deaths. The benefit of CVD deaths from sodium reduction is considerable with 8800 (6400-13 600), 6700 (4900-11 600), and 8500 (6000-10 800) averted, respectively, if sodium intake was reduced from the 2011 baseline to 3500 mg/day, 4000 mg/day, or reduced by 30%. Conclusions Nearly 20% of CVD deaths among adults aged 25 to 69 years could be attributable to the systolic blood pressure-raising effect of high sodium intake in Shandong in 2011. Potential benefits from population reduction of sodium intake are considerable.
