[Differences in mortality in the over-65s in a health area of the community of Madrid].
Article in Atencion primaria, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo detect the possible differences in risk of mortality of the population aged 65 and over in Health Area 11 of the Community of Madrid and to explore their relationship with economic factors.
designObservational, retrospective, and ecological-style study.
settingDistricts and boroughs in Health Area 11 of the Community of Madrid, Spain.
participantsPeople aged 65 and over. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: The analysed variable was the total deaths occurring in the study population during the period 1996-2001. The standardized mortality rate (SMR) was calculated. As a social/economic indicator, mean available income, stratified in 3 groups, was used. The statistical method used was Poisson regression.
resultsThe mortality rates oscillated between 37.33 and 91.54 deaths for every thousand inhabitants (SMR ratio, 2.47). In urban areas, in men with level 2 income, mortality was 16% less (P=.0406) than the reference group, whereas in high-income men it was 20% less (P=.0042). In women the rate was about 8% less, though this did not attain statistical significance (P=.3039). The relationship in semi-rural areas was not demonstrated.
conclusionsThe existence of inequalities in the mortality of the population aged 65 or over was demonstrated. There was an inverse relationship between mean available income and mortality in urban areas.
