Burden of cardiovascular disease attributable to risk factors in Pakistan: insight from Global Burden of Disease Study 2019.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Objective: To compare cardiovascular disease (CVD) attributable to environmental, metabolic, and behavioral risk factor trends in Pakistan and globally. Methods: We used the Global Burden of Disease 2019 to determine the number of deaths, disability-adjusted life years, age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR) per 100,000, and age-standardized disability-adjusted life years (ASDRs) per 100,000 by age, sex, year, sociodemographic index, regions, and countries. Results: In Pakistan, the ASMR per 100,000 (329 to 358; estimated annual percentage change [EAPC] 0.09) and ASDR per 100,000 (7327 to 7989; EAPC 0.09) for CVD remained stable with an inverted U-shaped trend. On the other hand, the global ASMR per 100,000 (354 to 240; EAPC -0.32) and ASDR per 100,000 (7085 to 4864; EAPC -0.31) for CVD decreased. Both globally and in Pakistan, the highest ASMR and ASDR of CVD were attributable to high systolic blood pressure followed by dietary risks. Out of 204 countries and territories worldwide, Pakistan ranked 49th for SBP and 33rd for dietary risks in terms of ASMR attributable to these risk factors in 2019. Conclusion: CVD disease burden in Pakistan remains prominent, with CVD ASMR and ASDR trends attributable to various risk factors displaying unfavorable patterns compared to global trends.
