Cardiovascular Disease Burden among African Migrants.
Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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
purpose of reviewTo provide an overview of the current available evidence on the burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) among African migrants, including its risk factors, underlying mechanisms, and prevention and treatment efforts, while highlighting critical gaps in knowledge. RECENT
findingsThe CVD burden is high among most African migrant populations. Underlying mechanisms for the high CVD burden include various pre- and post-migration factors, genetics, and epigenetics. Studies increasingly show substantial variation in CVD burden among African migrants across factors such as country of origin, host country, reason for migration, duration of stay, sex, and age. This variation is also observed among CVD risk factors and requires tailored prevention and treatment efforts. To fill critical gaps in knowledge, future studies need to recruit among diverse African migrant populations, in various high-income countries, using standardized methodologies with a focus on longitudinal designs, and integrating lifestyle, sociocultural, environmental, and genetic factors.
