The racial/ethnic and sociocultural aspects of the pandemic in rheumatology.
Review in Best practice & research. Clinical rheumatology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06469788 (Improving COVID-19 Vaccine Uptake Among Racial and Ethnic Minority Groups With Rheumatic Diseases), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
The disproportionate impact of coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19) on communities of color is gaining global attention. Current research demonstrates that historically marginalized populations are experiencing disproportionate levels of SARS-Cov-2 infection and adverse clinical outcomes. However, research examining whether COVID-19 outcomes vary by race and ethnicity within the rheumatic disease population is limited. This paper will review data showing how SARS-CoV-2 infection has differentially affected racial and ethnic minorities in the general population and those with rheumatic disease. We will also highlight disparities in rheumatic disease risk and severity that existed prior to the pandemic, and discuss recent work examining severe outcomes of COVID-19 in rheumatic disease patients by race and ethnicity. Finally, we propose several actionable steps for the rheumatology community to address COVID-19 health disparities, which may have long-term effects on patients with rheumatic disease.
