Nativity and prevalence of cardiometabolic diseases among U.S. Asian immigrants.
Article in Journal of diabetes and its complications, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
aimsAcculturation has been shown to be an important factor for immigrants' health in the United States. We investigate whether nativity is associated with a greater risk for cardiometabolic diseases among Asian Americans (Asians) vs. non-Hispanic whites (whites).
methodsBased on data from the U.S. National Health Interview Survey in 2006-2015, 146,862 Asians and whites aged ≥30 years were evaluated. Nativity as a proxy for acculturation was defined using a combination of birthplace and the duration of U.S. residency. Cardiometabolic diseases were defined based on self-reported diagnoses of diabetes, prediabetes, or cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Using 10-year pooled data accounting for complex sampling designs and weights, multiple logistic regression models were used to assess associations. Four Asian subgroups, including Chinese, Filipinos, Asian Indians and other Asians, were evaluated in subgroup analyses.
resultsCompared to U.S.-born whites, prevalent type 2 diabetes and prediabetes were higher among Asians depending on nativity. However, the prevalence of CVD was lower among Asians than among whites regardless of nativity (OR
conclusionsThe prevalence of diabetes and prediabetes is higher among Asian immigrants who have spent more years in the U.S., than those in U.S.-born whites. Monitoring and prevention efforts for diabetes should target this group.
