Mortality comparisons of First Nations to all other Manitobans: a provincial population-based look at health inequalities by region and gender.
Article in Canadian journal of public health = Revue canadienne de sante publique. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundTo examine inequalities in health status of Registered First Nations Manitobans compared to all other Manitobans.
methodsThree mortality indicators--premature mortality rate (PMR) defined as an age- and sex-adjusted rate of death before age 75 years; life expectancy from birth; and potential years of life lost (PYLL)--are compared between Registered First Nations (RFN) people and all other Manitobans (AOM) by geographical areas of Manitoba. Data were derived from the Population Health Research Data Repository, linked to the federal Status Verification System (SVS) files for the years 1995 through 1999.
resultsFirst Nations experienced double the PMR compared to all other Manitobans (6.6 versus 3.3 deaths per thousand, p < 0.05), an eight-year gap in life expectancy (males: 68.4 versus 76.1 years; females 73.2 versus 81.4 years), and over twice the PYLL (males 158.3 versus 62.5 years of life lost per thousand; females 103.3 versus 36.5). RFN male life expectancy was geographically-related (better health status in the north), and inversely related to the corresponding regional AOM life expectancy (r = -0.61, 9 df, one-tailed, p < 0.03). As regional percentage of RFN decreased, male life expectancy decreased (r = 0.77, 9 df, one-tailed, p < 0.003). In contrast, RFN female indicators showed no such relationship.
conclusionThe inequality in health status between RFN and all other Manitobans is large, but also shows differential geographical and gender effects.
