Racial Disparities in Healthcare Utilization Among Individuals with Cardiometabolic Risk Factors and Comorbid Anxiety Disorder.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThis study addresses racial/ethnic differences in adverse health care utilization among individuals with comorbid anxiety disorder and cardiometabolic syndrome (CMetS) risk factors.
methodsUtilizing 2011-2015 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) data, logistic regression models were estimated to determine the likelihood of receiving CMetS-related medical treatment in the emergency department (ED) or via inpatient services and to determine if the likelihood is associated with race/ethnicity. Adjusted models controlled for age, sex, and insurance type.
resultsSignificant racial-ethnic differences were observed for utilization (any emergency department and/or inpatient visit). The odds of non-Hispanic Black respondents reporting emergency department and/or inpatient utilization was 2.39 (p < 0.05) times the odds of non-Hispanic White respondents.
conclusionRacial-ethnic variation in adverse healthcare utilization suggests an opportunity to improve care and outcomes for persons diagnosed with comorbid anxiety disorder and cardiometabolic syndrome. Integrated interventions could simultaneously improve mental health and facilitate CMetS disease self-management.
