Short-term outcomes of Jewish and Arab preterms: a population-based comparison.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2021. 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
objectiveTo compare short-term outcomes of Arabs versus Jewish infants in Israel.
methodsWe used the Israel national VLBW infant database to compare adjusted mortality and major morbidities rates of Arabs versus Jewish infants delivered between January 1995 and December 2016. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to study the association of ethnicity with the odds for mortality and neonatal morbidities.
resultsThe study population comprised 22431 VLBW, very preterm (<32 weeks gestation) infants (27.7% Arabs and 72.3% Jewish) without congenital malformations. The Arab infants had significantly higher odds ratios for mortality, and most neonatal morbidities. Despite the significant decline in mortality over time in both ethnic groups, the difference in mortality rates remained unchanged over time.
conclusionsWe found significant ethic disparity that remained unchanged over time. Some of the disparities identified in this study may be amenable to improvement through proper policies and education.
