Doctors' recommendations and healthy lifestyle behaviors among individuals with hypertension in Brazil.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2023. 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
Little is known about whether doctors' recommendations encourage healthy behaviors among individuals with hypertension in Brazil. This study examined the biological, social, and health factors related to doctor's recommendations and the associations between doctor's recommendations and healthy behaviors. The sample consisted of individuals with hypertension (N = 18,260) from Brazil's 2019 National Health Survey. The outcomes examined included smoking, drinking, diet, salt intake, physical activity, and doctor visits. Study findings indicated that more than 80% of people with hypertension in Brazil received doctors' recommendations to adhere to medical care and engage in healthy behaviors. Those who received recommendations were more likely to practice healthy eating and exercise regularly but also to be obese/overweight, smoke, and drink excessively. Nonetheless, the findings concerning diet and exercise suggest the value of doctors' recommendations for individuals with hypertension in Brazil.
