Race/Ethnicity Matters: Differences in Poststroke Inpatient Rehabilitation Outcomes.
Article in Ethnicity & disease, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Objective: To examine racial/ethnic differences in poststroke inpatient rehabilitation outcomes. Design: Cross-sectional and retrospective study of administrative data across 2002-2018. Setting: An inpatient rehabilitation facility in Southern California. Participants: 3,876 racial/ethnic people aged ≥ 18 years. Main Outcome Measures: Functional Independence Measure (FIM®) and discharge disposition. Results: Participants were non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs, 68.5%), Hispanics (17.1%), non-Hispanic Asians (NHAs, 7.4%), and non-Hispanic Blacks (NHBs, 6.4%) aged 18-102 years (Mage = 68.47±14.66 years; MLOS = 19.47±10.05 days). Above and beyond covariates, multivariate hierarchical regression analyses showed race/ethnicity significantly predicted admission, motor efficiency, and discharge FIM® scores. Compared with NHWs, the Hispanic and NHA groups were associated with lower cognitive, motor, and total FIM® scores at admission; the NHB group was associated with lower motor efficiency, lower discharge motor and total FIM® scores, whereas the Hispanic group was associated with higher discharge total FIM® scores. Lastly, Hispanics had higher odds of a discharge home compared with NHWs. Conclusions: Findings suggest racial/ethnic differences exist in poststroke rehabilitation outcomes.
