Population and health system factors affecting the transferability of health kiosks in markets in Kenya.
Article in International health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to assess the population and health system factors affecting the transferability of health kiosks in markets in Kenya.
methodsA cross-sectional study with a partially mixed concurrent dominant status design was conducted among 843 households, policy actors, market chairpersons and champions, community health promoters and health workers. A χ2 test was used to test for independence with variables with a statistical significance (p<0.05) subjected to logistic regression. Qualitative data were transcribed verbatim to form nodes and themes.
resultsLevel of income, knowledge, awareness and perception of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors were associated with 27.5% of Nyeri respondents earning ≥Ksh 10 000 monthly compared with Vihiga respondents (17.3%). Vihiga respondents were likely to identify excessive alcohol consumption as a cause of CVD. Vihiga had fair (40%) and good (26.6%) awareness levels towards CVDs compared with Nyeri respondents (36.3% and 19.7%, respectively). Vihiga respondents had a higher positive perception towards health services at the local facility compared with Nyeri respondents.
conclusionsCVD burden, low awareness levels, low health insurance cover and the poor attitude of health workers have the potential to affect the transferability of a health intervention such as a health market kiosk.
