Differences in Major Causes of Death and Disease Burden Among Residents of Kashin-Beck Disease Endemic and Non-Endemic Areas - Heilongjiang Province, China, 2024.
Article in China CDC weekly, 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
What is already known about this topic?: Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) imposes a heavy burden on both patients and their families. However, there are no reports on the health disparities between residents with long-term exposure to KBD risk factors in endemic and non-endemic areas. What is added by this report?: For ischemic heart diseases, the age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR) were significantly higher in endemic areas, particularly among males, residents aged ≥65 years, and residents in economically developed regions. For malignant neoplasms of the digestive organs, ASMR was higher in endemic areas, and a significant difference in ASMR between the two areas was observed in females. For cerebral infarction, the ASMR was significantly lower in endemic areas, particularly among residents in economically developed regions. The rate of life lost due to ischemic heart diseases and malignant neoplasms of digestive organs was relatively high in endemic areas, while the rate due to cerebral infarction was relatively high in non-endemic areas. What are the implications for public health practice?: These findings provide scientific evidence for optimizing comprehensive prevention and control strategies for endemic diseases, and strengthening interventions for key diseases.
