Self-rated Health Disparities Among Asian Americans: Mediating Roles of Education Level and Household Income.
Article in Journal of immigrant and minority health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Asian Americans represent an understudied racial category in health disparity research. Using data from the National Asian American Survey, we examined self-rated health (SRH) disparities in eight Asian subgroups compared to Whites, explored the moderating effect of nativity status, and investigated the mediating effect of socioeconomic status. None of the Asian subgroups fared better than Whites. Across Asian subgroups, South Asians, Japanese, and Filipinos had the best SRH, with Cambodians being the most disadvantaged. Nativity was a significant moderator in that SRH disadvantages were only manifested among immigrants for Chinese, Korean, Hmong, and Vietnamese and only among natives for Filipinos. For most groups showing SRH disadvantages, SES played partial mediating roles. Education showed a higher explanatory power than income for inter-ethnic SRH disparities. Contrary to popular perception, Asian Americans are not the model minority in terms of SRH. Cultural influences on SRH reporting biases were discussed.
