Mental Healthcare Provider Perceptions of Race and Racial Disparity in the Care of Black and White Clients.
Article in The journal of behavioral health services & research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Black-white disparities in mental healthcare persist, despite efforts to eliminate them via culturally competent care. To gain insight into how providers implement culturally competent care practices, interviews were conducted with mental healthcare providers' about their self-reported behaviors with black and white clients and their perceptions of how race affects the treatment they provide. Thematic analysis was used to analyze 12 semi-structured interviews with providers from a Veterans Affairs healthcare system. Three sets of themes emerged: providers' general beliefs and behaviors (discomfort discussing race; belief that socioeconomic differences explained disparities; and use of coded language for race groups), providers' clinical beliefs and behaviors (race-matching enhances care and recognition of intersecting cultural identities), and providers' professional beliefs and behaviors (participation in passive racism facilitated by provider-provider alliance). Mental healthcare providers showed good awareness of intersectionality and subtle racism but held limiting beliefs that led to avoidance of discussions of race.
