Intergenerational educational mobility and type 2 diabetes in the Sacramento Area Latino Study on Aging.
Article in Annals of epidemiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeUnited States (US) Latinos have the lowest educational attainment of any US racial/ethnic group, which may contribute to their disparate burden of Type 2 Diabetes. Herein, we aimed to examine the association between intergenerational educational mobility and Type 2 Diabetes among US Latino adults.
methodsWe used data from the Niños Lifestyle and Diabetes Study (2013-2014) and the Sacramento Area Latino Study on Aging (1998-1999) to link 616 adult Latino children to their parents. Model-based standardization and robust Poisson regression were used to estimate the prevalence of prediabetes, Type 2 Diabetes, treatment and glycemic control, and describe their associations with intergenerational educational mobility.
resultsAdult children with stable high intergenerational educational attainment had a higher prevalence of prediabetes (Prevalence Ratio, PR=1.58; 95% Confidence Interval, CI=1.08, 2.34) and lower prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes (PR=0.64, CI=0.41, 0.99), as compared to those who experienced low educational attainment across generations. Downward mobility was associated with a higher prevalence of prediabetes (PR=1.54, CI=1.06, 2.23) and worse glycemic control (PR=2.20, CI=1.13, 4.30), and upward mobility was associated with a lower prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes (PR=0.39, CI=0.22, 0.70).
conclusionsOur findings from a predominantly Mexican-heritage community suggest that higher education across generations may buffer individuals from glycemic dysregulation. As such, higher education may be a promising public health target to address the rising burden of Type 2 Diabetes in the US.
