One finding, on its own
A single claim from the graph, with the evidence strength computed from its study, the sentence it was drawn from, and the paper. This address does not change.
Decreases incidence of cardiovascular disease (composite)
ModerateEvidence strength: moderate. Human evidence with one recorded weakness, or capped at moderate by its design or by unread numbers.Findingreplicated ×2“Across quintiles, a higher potassium intake was associated with a 13% lower risk of total CVD (HR comparing extreme quintiles = 0.87, 95% CI: 0.79–0.96, p trend = 0.005).”
Quoted verbatim from Dietary Sodium and Potassium Intake and Risk of Non-Fatal Cardiovascular Diseases: The Million Veteran Program.. - Study
- cohort
- Dose
- habitual dietary potassium intake, highest quintile versus lowest quintile
- Population
- US veterans in the Million Veteran Program free of cardiovascular disease and cancer at baseline; energy-adjusted dietary potassium by short food frequency questionnaire, highest versus lowest quintile
Effect 0.87 hazard ratio, 95% CI 0.79 to 0.96
