Undiagnosed and uncontrolled hypertension and hyperlipidemia among immigrants in the US.
Article in Journal of immigrant and minority health, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 36 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
Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of mortality and disability. We analyzed the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1998-2008). We used logistic regression analysis to compare the odds of having undiagnosed and uncontrolled hypertension and hyperlipidemia among FB and US born adults sequentially adjusting for (1) age and gender, (2) income and education, and (3) insurance status. Among FB individuals, we identified factors independently associated with having each outcome using logistic regression analyses. Of 27,596 US adults, 22.6 % were foreign-born. In age- and -gender adjusted analyses, FB were more likely to have undiagnosed hypertension (OR 1.35, 95 % CI 1.13-1.63, p < 0.001), uncontrolled hypertension (OR 1.37, 95 % CI 1.15-1.64, p < 0.001), and uncontrolled hyperlipidemia (OR 1.35, 95 % CI 1.11-1.63, p = 0.002), while undiagnosed hyperlipidemia approached significance (OR 1.24, 95 % CI 0.99-1.56, p = 0.057). Having insurance was associated with a 5-15 % decrease in FB-US born disparities. Immigrants are at increased risk of undiagnosed and uncontrolled hypertension and hyperlipidemia.
