Overt Perceived Discrimination and Racial Microaggressions and their Association with Health Risk Behaviors among a Sample of Urban American Indian/Alaska Native Adolescents.

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
backgroundUrban American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) adolescents are an understudied population in the USA who are at risk for a variety of health problems. Perceived discrimination (PD), including both overt PD and racial microaggressions (RMA), is known to adversely affect health. However, studies analyzing associations between overt PD and RMA and various health behaviors are limited.
methodsThis study measured past-year alcohol use, heavy drinking, marijuana use, commercialized tobacco use, consequences experienced from alcohol and marijuana use in the past 3 months, mental and physical health status, AI/AN traditional activity participation, and overt PD and RMA among 182 urban AI/AN adolescents in California. To assess the association between overt PD and RMAs and health outcomes, we conducted either logistic regression (for dichotomous outcomes: past-year alcohol use, past-year heavy drinking, past-year marijuana use, consequences of alcohol and marijuana use, commercialized tobacco use) or linear regression (for continuous outcomes: mental and physical health, AI/AN traditional practices).
resultsIn contrast to our hypotheses, overt PD and RMA were not significantly associated with substance use or mental or physical health among this sample of urban AI/AN adolescents. After adjusting for age and gender, overt PD and RMA were only correlated with past-year cigarette use and alcohol-related consequences experienced in the past 3 months.
conclusionPotential factors that may play a role in decreasing effects of overt PD and RMA among urban AI/AN adolescents are discussed, including participation in AI/AN traditional practices and community engagement.
