[Possible ways of managing cardiovascular prevention: polypharmacy, additional payment or application of evidence based medicine?].
Article in Der Internist, 2005. 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
The financial balance of the health care system has changed dramatically due to a longer life expectancy and improved treatment options in elderly patients. More than 80% of cardiovascular events are lifestyle related and potentially preventable. Lifestyle modification is therefore the causal approach to decrease cardiovascular events. Improvement of nutrition and activity habits and prevention of cigarette smoking should start in the kindergarten, school and later at the workplace. A co-operation between medical societies and government institutions is necessary to achieve a population wide modification of lifestyle habits to lower the incidence of cardiovascular events in the population. Individual risk stratification is the basis for pharmacological prevention of cardiovascular events. The concept of the polypill has to be tested in controlled randomised studies.
