Findings from the meta-analysis on water intake and all-cause
mortality:
Examining the association between drinking water consumption and risk of
all-cause mortality in three studies[5, 16, 19],
that involved a total of 51474 participants with 9279 deaths, we found
no significant association (Pooled ES comparing the highest and lowest
intakes: 0.82; 95% CI: 0.63-1.08, P=0.65), with high heterogeneity
among the studies (I2 =77.3 %; P=0.001)
(Figure 3 ).
