Cardiovascular disease risk estimation among slums residents of Lucknow using QRISK3 calculator.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2025. 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
introductionCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are presently the leading cause of death in India. Cardiovascular diseases are result of multiple factors. Among these risk factors, lifestyle plays a major role in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases. Urban slum residents are disproportionately affected by CVD risk factors due to their high rates of poverty, subpar living circumstances, and limited access to social services. Early estimation of CVDs will reduce the burden on the individual, and the country. This study was conducted to estimate the risk of having a cardiovascular event (Myocardial Infarction [MI]/Stroke) after ten years by using the QRISK3 calculator.
methodsA community-based, cross-sectional study was conducted in the slums of Lucknow, among 300 participants. The WHO 30/7 Cluster sampling technique was used to select slums. QRISK3 calculator was used to estimate 10-year CVD risk. The Chi-square test and Fisher exact test were used to analyze the data.
resultsThe proportion of respondents with low (<10%), moderate (10-<20%), and high risk (≥ 20%) of developing CVDs after 10 years was 71.0 percent, 20.0 percent, and 9.0 percent respectively. The preponderance of developing a high risk of 10-year CVD was highly significant among the age group of 51-60 years, males, who were smokers, obese, and hypertensive participants (
conclusionThis study concludes that the risk of CVD events in the next 10 years is low but the risk factors associated with the CVD events (MI/STROKE) are prevalent in slum areas. Modifiable risk factors like smoking, obesity, hypertension, and Type 2 diabetes mellitus could be controlled by creating awareness among the slum population.
