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

Among migrants who arrived in the USA and Europe, communicable diseases such as dermatologic, gastrointestinal, and respiratory infections are frequent; non-communicable diseases including chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes, and vaccine-preventable diseases are also prevalent. Refugees are often not up to date on routine immunizations and screenings for chronic diseases and cancer. In addition, many immigrants have trauma-related mental health problems, which are often not addressed by the healthcare systems where they reside. Determining the healthcare needs of specific immigration groups should lead to the establishment of evidence-based guidelines for providing screening and healthcare services to immigrant populations, for the benefit of the individuals concerned, as well as the host countries.
