Household Financial Assets Inequity and Health Disparities Among Young Adults: Evidence from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health.
Article in Journal of health disparities research and practice, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
introductionResearch has established a strong relationship between financial resources and health outcomes. Yet, little is known about the effects of assets disparities on health outcomes, especially during the critical period when adolescents transition to adults. Methods: Using data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (
resultsBoth assets and debts were related to young adults' health status, young adults with more assets and positive net worth have higher probability to report a better level of both general health and depression. Young adult's obesity was found to be associated with net worth but not with assets. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Our work connects health promotion with poverty alleviation to address the challenge of health disparity. A better understanding of different forms of financial resources (e.g., income, assets, and debt) and their dynamic relationships with health outcomes will contribute to developing effective asset-based interventions for promoting health status. Particularly, current policy and practice should consider the importance of resolving and clearing debt.
