Awareness of cardiovascular disease among Korean women: Results from a nationwide survey.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Women underestimate the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). It is essential to assess and raise awareness regarding CVD among women to reduce disease burden and mortality. Therefore, we investigated the awareness regarding CVD among Korean women. We conducted a nationwide survey between December 2020 and January 2021 among a representative sample of Korean women using random-digit-dialing telephonic interviews. We sought information regarding the awareness of CVD risk; recognition of symptoms and signs; and knowledge of the cause and prevention of and appropriate response to CVD. A total of 1,050 women (mean age, 60.2 ± 11.9 years) participated in the study. Approximately 52.0% of participants were unaware of CVD, and only 26% of participants had heard of CVD. Participants considered that compared to other diseases, CVD was not an important health issue for women, and few of them thought that cerebrovascular diseases and CVD were the leading causes of death (10.9% and 7.6%, respectively). After adjustment for possible confounding factors, age >70 years, rural residence, and educational attainment below college were independently associated with a lack of awareness regarding CVD. The awareness regarding CVD being the leading cause of death in women is low, and most women do not consider it an important health issue. Therefore, special attention must be paid to educate the public regarding CVD in women.
