Prevalence and risk factors of cardiovascular diseases among youths in Kazakhstan: a systematic review of the literature.
Review in Future science OA, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Cardiovascular disease encompasses different diseases affecting the heart or circulatory vessels and is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, there is a lack of data on the prevalence and magnitude of the disease among the young population in Kazakhstan. The current study is a systematic review of the literature that aims to analyze published data to estimate the prevalence and risk factors of cardiovascular diseases among young people in Kazakhstan. The search for references performed using different databases including PubMed, MEDLINE and Embase. A total of 107 papers were retrieved, of which only 8 met the inclusion criteria and included in the study. There is a lack of literature that describes the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases among young people in Kazakhstan; however, the estimated average in this study, based on the weighted pool of general population is 22.4%. Interestingly, the most commonly reported modifiable risk factors among young adults include unhealthy diet, smoking, mental health, physical inactivity, drug use and metabolic disorders. While there is a general improvement in cardiovascular health among older people, young adults appear to indulge themselves in several modifiable risk factors and develop unhealthy cardiovascular status.
