Diversity and disparity: GIS and small-area analysis in six Chicago neighborhoods.
Article in Journal of medical systems, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Small-area analysis in health is essential in uncovering local-level disparities often masked by health estimates for large areas (e.g., cities, counties, states). In this context, 14 health status indicators (HSIs) were examined for six Chicago community areas that reflect the substantial diversity of the city. HSIs were compared over time (from 1989-90 to 1999-2000) and across community areas. Important disparities among these community areas in mortality rates, birth outcomes, and infectious diseases were found. In many cases the disparities were in the expected direction with the richest and predominantly White community area experiencing the lowest rates. However, some surprises did manifest themselves. For example, only the poorest community area experienced a statistically significant decline in the infant mortality rate. Since so much of attention is now being paid to reducing and eliminating these disparities, it is important to examine their existence to better understand how to minimize them.
