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

objectiveTo analyse the perception, use and satisfaction of a group of immigrants living in Barcelona taking into account their gender, origin and social class.

designCross sectional study. LOCATION: City of Barcelona, Spain.

participantsA group of 225 immigrant residents and users of social services in the city of Barcelona, from June to July 2012. MAIN MEASURES: the level of access and relationship with the public health system of immigrants living in Barcelona was analysed, based on a questionnaire. The responses were analysed in relation to: gender, age, social class, self-perceived health, national origin, time since arrival, and marital status.

resultsThe large majority (89%) of the population surveyed declared that the most important aspect was «to have been treated with respect» in health services. However, 59.4% reported a perception of «discrimination against immigrants», and 68.4% said that cultural differences affect «totally or partially» the quality of care received. For 66.7% of the participants, health care received in Barcelona is better than in their home country, mainly for its scientific, technical quality, and universal access.

conclusionsDespite the good assessment of universal public health care system this study showed deficiencies of the system in terms of the psychosocial component of health care to immigrants in Barcelona. It is necessary to deepen the study of knowledge and perceptions of minority groups in the current context.
