"I Need my Own Place to get Better": Patient Perspectives on the Role of Housing in Potentially Preventable Hospitalizations.
Article in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05456906 (Avoidable Hospitalizations/ Emergency Department Visits- Meta-synthesis of Qualitative Research), which is not on this map. Cited by 17 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
objectiveTo analyze patient perspectives on the role of housing in their potentially preventable hospitalization.
methodsIndividuals admitted with cardiovascular-or diabetes-related diagnoses (n = 90) in a major medical center in Hawai'i completed an in-person interview eliciting patient perspectives on key factors leading to hospitalization. Using the framework approach, two independent coders identified themes. This study focused on housing-related findings.
resultsOverall, 23% of participants reported housing as a precipitating factor to their hospitalization, including 12 with no regular place to stay. Four housing-related themes emerged: challenges meeting basic needs, complex chronic care management difficulties, stigma and relationship with provider, and stress and other mental health issues. DISCUSSION: Almost 25% of patients identified housing as a key factor to their hospital stay. Patient-reported themes highlight specific mechanisms by which housing challenges may lead to hospitalization. Addressing housing issues could help reduce the number and associated cost burden of preventable hospitalizations.
