Prevalence of cardiovascular disease risk factors in ethnic minority adults in plateau areas: a cross-sectional study in Yunnan Province.
Article in BMC public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and clustering of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors among ethnic minorities in plateau areas and their association with sociodemographic characteristics.
methodsFrom September 2023 to January 2024, data were collected among ethnic minorities in plateau areas of Yunnan Province through face-to-face interviews. Ordered logistic regression and restricted cubic splines were used to assess the association between sociodemographic characteristics and the risk of clustering of risk factors.
resultsA total of 2457 participants with a median age of 56.00 years were investigated. Insufficient vegetable and fruit intake (42.21%) was the most prevalent behavioral risk factor, followed by current smoking (26.62%). Hypertension (44.24%) was the most prevalent metabolic risk factor, followed by overweight/obesity (39.32%). Among participants, 44.36% had one behavioral risk factor, 21.69% had two, and 4.84% had three or more. The prevalence of participants having 1, 2, 3 or ≥ 4 metabolic risk factors was 29.55%, 21.86%, 15.83% and 5.54%, respectively. The clustering of behavioral risk factors was more prominent among participants aged 65-75, males, Tibetans, illiterates, and rural residents, while the risk of metabolic risk factor clustering was greater in older individuals, those with a high school education or higher, urban residents, and those with higher household incomes.
conclusionsCVD risk factors are highly prevalent and clustered among ethnic minorities in plateau areas of Yunnan Province, displaying heterogeneity across sociodemographic characteristics. Interventions targeting these risk factors may reduce the CVD burden of ethnic minorities in the plateau areas.
