Nativity and cognitive disability among children: a unique comparison with reduced selection bias.

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
objectivesWe examined the impact of nativity on self-reported cognitive disability by comparing children who were born outside of the USA (first-generation immigrants) with US-born offspring (second-generation immigrants) of foreign-born parents.
methodsWe analyzed a diverse, nationally representative, sample of 77,324 first-generation immigrant and second-generation immigrant children (aged 5-17 years) from the 2009 American Community Survey. Multivariate logistic regression was used to assess the association between nativity and self-reported cognitive disability after adjustment for demographics and household characteristics.
resultsSelf-reported cognitive disability was observed in 1.7 % of the sample. The prevalence was higher among first second-generation immigrants than among second first-generation immigrants (1.9 vs 1.1 %, p < 0.001). After multivariate adjustment, the advantage of being foreign-born remained (OR = 0.63, 95 % CI = 0.53-0.75). Further analysis revealed effect modification of the immigrant health advantage by household income (p = 0.003).
conclusionsWe observed an immigrant advantage in self-reported cognitive disability; however, it was only evident among economically disadvantaged children. Future research should examine the contribution of the accumulation of poverty over time to the relationship between nativity and children's health.
