Influence of the Local Food Environment on Hispanics' Perceptions of Healthy Food Access in New York City.
Observational study in Hispanic health care international : the official journal of the National Association of Hispanic Nurses, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionStudies have characterized food environments and documented its impact on access and consumption of healthy foods as well as diet-related health conditions. This study aims to characterize the local food environment in New York City's Washington Heights and Inwood community and to examine its influence on Hispanics' perceptions of healthy food access.
methodsPerson-level local food environments were created by spatially modeling food retailers selling fresh fruits and vegetables or low-fat products within a participant's 400- and 800-m residential radius buffers. Data were analyzed using multivariate binary logistic regression.
resultsFruit/vegetable markets significantly increased participants' odds of perceiving the availability of a large selection as well as the high quality of fresh fruits and vegetables in their neighborhood. Medium-/large-size supermarkets/groceries within 400-m radius significantly increased participants' odds of perceiving the high quality of fresh fruits and vegetables in their neighborhood, whereas meat markets significantly lowered the odds. Fruit/vegetable markets and medium-/large-size supermarkets/groceries significantly increased participants' odds of perceiving the availability of a large selection of low-fat products in their neighborhood.
conclusionStudy findings advance our understanding of the relationships between local food environment and perceived healthy food access among urban Hispanics.
