Utilization of preventive care by Haitian immigrants in Miami, Florida.

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
In order to evaluate the health needs and consequences of barriers to health care access for the Haitian immigrant community of Miami-Dade County, Florida, we collected in 2001 demographic and health needs and access data from a probability sample of county residents of Haitian origin. We computed frequencies and prevalence ratios, and employed chi-square and logistic regression methods for data analysis. Hypertension and diabetes were among the most prevalent health conditions mentioned. Up to 39% of participants failed to have an annual physical and 10% failed to receive care for their serious health conditions. On bivariate analysis, insurance coverage, a usual place of care, educational attainment, household income, citizenship status, and duration of residency were associated with services utilization. Citizenship status was the strongest independent predictor of services utilization. The findings suggest that this community faces distinct health needs and daunting challenges to meet those needs.
