Patient perceptions of integrated cardiovascular care in primary healthcare settings in Kazakhstan.

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
aimsCardiovascular diseases remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality in Kazakhstan. This study aimed to evaluate patient perceptions of integrated cardiovascular care in primary healthcare (PHC) and identify factors associated with satisfaction with outpatient cardiovascular services. MATERIALS AND
methodsA cross-sectional survey included 268 patients receiving outpatient care for cardiovascular diseases or risk factors. A validated questionnaire assessed multidisciplinary team (MDT) involvement, medication support, daycare hospital use, healthcare professional support, treatment adherence, and psychosocial factors. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson's chi-square test, and Firth-penalized logistic regression.
resultsOf 268 participants, 220 (82.1%; 95% CI, 77.1-86.3%) were satisfied with outpatient cardiovascular care, while only 12.7% were aware of MDT involvement. Satisfaction was associated with educational level (p = 0.019), treatment adherence (p < 0.001), medication support awareness (p < 0.001), MDT awareness (p = 0.015), daycare hospital use (p = 0.009), psychological concerns (p < 0.001), and nurse support (p < 0.001).
conclusionsSatisfaction was associated primarily with organizational, behavioral, and psychosocial aspects of care. Limited MDT awareness suggests that integrated-care structures may not always be perceived by patients as coordinated care.
