1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeRecent studies have shown increased incidence of non-affective psychotic disorders (NAPD) among ethnic minorities compared to the native population, but not, or less so, in areas with a high own-group proportion. The aim is to investigate this ethnic density effect in Utrecht and whether this effect is due to higher rates of NAPD among Dutch persons in areas with high minority proportions. We also explore the geographical scale at which this effect occurs and the influence of social drift prior to NAPD.

methodsNAPD cases in the Psychiatric Case Registry Middle Netherlands (N = 2,064) and living in Utrecht during 2000-2009 were analyzed in a Poisson model in relation to both individual-level and district- vs. neighborhood-level characteristics.

resultsWith increasing minority density, especially of the neighborhood, the rate ratios of NAPD significantly decreased among both non-Western (from 2.36 to 1.24) and Western immigrants (from 1.63 to 1.01), in comparison with Dutch persons. This was partly explained by higher rates of NAPD among Dutch persons in areas with high minority density. But there was also a trend to lower NAPD rates among non-Western minorities in these areas (P = 0.074).This trend was significant among Surinamese/Antilleans (P = 0.001) and Moroccans aged 18-30 years (P = 0.046). Among the Dutch, a social drift to minority-dense neighborhoods prior to NAPD registration was found.

conclusionsOur findings support the beneficial association with own-group presence at the smaller scale neighborhood level. Findings show also that this association is more pronounced in immigrant vs. native comparisons and is not found within all ethnic groups.
