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
Confusion around health insurance reforms persist. The purpose of this study was to assess demographic differences in Affordable Care Act (ACA) and health insurance knowledge in a multi-ethnic urban sample. Data came from 243 adults from racial/ethnic communities. Participants were asked about elements of health insurance and the ACA. Generalized linear and logistic regression models were used to examine relationships between demographic predictors and knowledge domains. Female gender (p < 0.05) and Latino/Hispanic race/ethnicity (p < 0.001) were most predictive of lower eligibility knowledge, while non-citizen with residency status (p < 0.001) and other/not declared residency status (p < 0.001) were most predictive of lower insurance coverage knowledge. No demographic factors predicted enrollment knowledge. Latino/Hispanic race/ethnicity (p < 0.01) was most predictive of not knowing that more people can get insurance because of the ACA. In conclusion, there is variation in health insurance and ACA-related knowledge in multi-ethnic populations. More compatible health communication interventions are needed to support outreach to key demographic groups.
