Illuminating Racial Inequity in Diabetes Control: Differences Based on Gender and Geography.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2021. 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
The objective of this study is to describe racial differences in type 2 diabetes mellitus "diabetes" control among the adults in the USA, and to examine attributes that may exacerbate racial differences. Secondary analyses of data from the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NAMCS) collected in years 2012-2014 in the USA. Study sample was limited to White or African American patients aged 25 or older and living with diabetes (n = 4106). Outcome measure, poor diabetes control, was based on lab values for HbA1c (> 7%). Covariates include demographics, insurance, comorbid conditions, and continuity of care and location (urban vs. rural). Overall, African Americans have 33% higher odds of poor diabetes control compared with Whites. Adjusted probability of poor diabetes control was 48% overall, 65% for African American women and 69% for African Americans living in rural areas. African Americans continue to have poorer diabetes control compared to Whites. This difference is exacerbated for African American women, and for all African Americans living in rural areas. Policy should include concentrated screening and treatment resources for African Americans in rural settings.
