Table 4 Odds ratio and 95% CIs for salt-related factors and gastric cancer n (%)

Salt factors	Cases	Controls	OR1 (95% CI)	P	OR2 (95% CI)	P value
Salted taste preference
Not salty	118 (39.3)	301 (50.2)	-	-	-	-
Medium	162 (54)	265 (44.2)	1.12 (0.79-1.89)	P = 0.45	1.34 (0.92-2.67)	P = 0.08
Salty	20 (6.6)	34 (5.7)	1.33 (1.02-1.75)	< 0.05	1.94 (1.37-4.76)	< 0.05
STST≥ 5	221 (73.7)	258 (43)	4.03 (2.87-5.65)	< 0.001	5.71 (3.18-6.72)	< 0.001
