A successful guide in understanding Latino immigrant patients: an aid for health care professionals.
Article in Family & community health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
The recent growth of Latino immigrants in the United States has presented great challenges to the health care system, particularly in "emerging Latino states." An educational DVD was developed to aid professionals in providing culturally competent care to Latino immigrants and better understand their expectations when seeking care, as well as common cultural beliefs and practices. Knowledge and confidence was assessed through pre- and posttest measurements among 515 health care professionals nationwide. Results indicated significant increase (P < .001) in overall knowledge/confidence in Latino cultural beliefs as they relate to health care seeking, differences in health care systems between the United States and Latin America, and barriers to health care. Such multimedia training may be a promising approach to improving health care with Latino immigrants in the United States.
