Race, stigma, and mental health referrals among clients of aging services who screened positive for depression.
Article in Psychiatric services (Washington, D.C.), 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
objectivesThis study examined rates of anticipated stigma and its impact on successful mental health referrals among elderly clients of home-delivered nutrition services who met criteria for depression.
methodsElderly clients (N=732) admitted to a home meal program between December 2004 and June 2006 were assessed for depression, cognitive impairment, and anticipated stigma. Gender and race comparisons were conducted, and predictors of receiving a mental health referral were identified.
resultsAfrican Americans were more likely than Caucasians to report high anticipated stigma, and African-American men reported the highest mean scores for anticipated stigma. There were no significant differences between African Americans and Caucasians in rates of depression or mental health referrals. For clients with depression, low anticipated stigma, younger age, and an interaction of race and gender predicted receipt of a mental health referral.
conclusionsAnticipated stigma can hinder the process of referring older adults for mental health treatment.
