Elevated Salt Taste Threshold Is Associated with Increased Risk of Coronary Heart Disease.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular translational research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
High salt intake has been associated with coronary heart disease (CHD). The salt taste threshold could affect the salt intake, but its role in CHD is uncertain. We studied the association of salt taste threshold with CHD. In this study, the levels of salt detection threshold, recognition threshold, and taste preference were higher in CHD than in controls. The salt taste recognition threshold was significantly associated with CHD, and the significant association persisted after adjustment for traditional risk factors. Individuals with high level of salt taste recognition threshold were at a greater risk of CHD. Coincident occurrence of high level of salt taste recognition threshold, hypertension, and diabetes increased the risk of CHD. Thus, a high level of salt taste recognition threshold increases the risk of CHD, and the concurrence of high level of salt taste recognition threshold, hypertension, and diabetes further increases the risk of CHD.
