Salt taste threshold and contributory factors of chronic kidney disease patients: a cross-sectional study.
Article in International urology and nephrology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
proposeHigh salt intake, correlated with high salt taste threshold, may accelerate renal injury in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. However, few studies have focused on factors that influence salt taste threshold. Therefore, we aimed to identify factors that influence the salt taste threshold of CKD patients, to provide more precise salt restriction recommendations in dietary therapy.
methodsBetween April 2016 and March 2019, we measured the salt taste threshold of 1019 CKD patients, aged 22-78 years, from 52 hospitals across southwestern China, and then we performed a cross-sectional study.
resultsThe mean salt taste threshold was 0.37 ± 0.16% NaCl. There were 115 (11.3%), 670 (65.7%), and 234 (23.0%), respectively, patients who had low (≤ 0.1% NaCl), medium (0.1-0.4% NaCl), and high (> 0.4% NaCl) salt taste thresholds. One-way ANOVA and regression results revealed that sex (male), age, decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate, and absence of salt restriction were factors that influenced CKD groups with high salt taste threshold.
conclusionWe found an independent correlation between contributory factors including sex, age, eGFR, and salt restriction behavior of subjects with the salt taste threshold of CKD patients. Our findings also offer insights on salt taste thresholds that could be useful for clinicians advising salt restriction to impair the salt taste sensitivity of the corresponding populations.
