Patient-Provider Social Concordance and Health Outcomes in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: a Retrospective Study from a Large Federally Qualified Health Center in Connecticut.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
objectiveThis study was conducted to better understand the relationship between patient-provider social concordance and cardiovascular risk factor control in patients with type 2 diabetes.
methodsA retrospective study was conducted on adult patients with type 2 diabetes receiving care at Community Health Center, Inc. between July 1, 2012, and June 30, 2013. We utilized a composite score comprised of four social dimensions-age, gender, language, and race/ethnicity-to determine patient-provider social concordance (SC) and used binary logistic regression to relate SC and other potentially influential covariates with cardiovascular outcomes of interest (HgA1c, LDL, BP control).
resultsPatients were more likely to have uncontrolled BP if they were in low or medium SC dyads with their providers (OR = 0.689, 95 % CI = 0.480, 0.989; OR = 0.673, 95 % CI 0.486, 0.931), and they were more likely to have controlled BP and LDL in the setting of care continuity with a regular provider (OR = 1.069, 95 % CI 1.005, 1.136; OR = 1.113, 95 % CI 1.048, 1.182).
conclusionsCertain health outcomes may be susceptible to patient-provider social concordance or discordance. Continuity of care may serve a protective role in offsetting effects of patient-provider social mismatching.
