National Trends of Vascular Risk Factor Control Among Stroke Survivors in Korea: From the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2010 to 2021.

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
backgroundTo prevent stroke recurrence in stroke survivors, effective management of vascular risk factors (VRFs), including hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and smoking, is essential. This study aimed to assess the VRF control status and trends among stroke survivors in Korea.
methodsThis cross-sectional study analyzed data from 1,261 stroke survivors aged ≥ 19 years (mean age: 65.2 years; 43.1% female) who were part of the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2010 to 2021. The control status of VRFs was evaluated using standardized criteria: hypertension (blood pressure < 140/90 mmHg), diabetes (hemoglobin A1c < 7%), hyperlipidemia (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol [LDL-C] < 70 mg/dL), and smoking status. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify factors associated with uncontrolled VRFs.
resultsThe rates of age-adjusted hypertension, diabetes, and smoking control remained consistent throughout the observation period. However, overall LDL-C control improved from 30.1% in 2010-2012 to 40.4% in 2019-2021 (
conclusionThese findings highlight the need for targeted health strategies to enhance risk-factor management and reduce stroke recurrence.
