Ethiopian university students' knowledge and perception towards cardiovascular disease risk factors: a cross sectional study.
Article in American journal of cardiovascular disease, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 (CVD) is the commonest cause of morbidity and mortality with an estimation of 17.9 million deaths worldwide annually. Knowledge about the disease and risk factors changes individuals' health attitudes, behaviors and lifestyle practices. We assessed the knowledge and perception of University students towards CVD risk factors. A cross-sectional survey was done on undergraduate students at University of Gondar, Ethiopia. We stratified sampled students based on their colleges and then used convenience sampling technique to pick up study participants from each college. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 20.0. Descriptive statistics were used to describe frequencies, percentages, mean and standard deviations of variables. Presence of association between independent and dependent variables was examined using logistic regression analysis. A
