Mexican Americans Participate in Research More than Expected while non-Hispanic Whites Participate Less than Expected.
Article in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03403257 (Brain Attack Surveillance in Corpus Christi--Cognitive), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveTo identify Hispanic/Latinx and non Hispanic White participation rates in a community-based project using door-to-door recruitment.
methodsWe conducted a two-stage area probability sample of housing units in Nueces County, Texas, using Census data including Mexican Americans (MAs) and non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs). From May 2018-February 2020, residents over 64 were asked to take a cognitive screen. We compared expected and observed ethnic-specific participation.
resultsNearly a thousand (996) participants enrolled. Accounting for sampling error, the observed count of MAs (n=609) significantly exceeded expectations ([inline-graphic 01], [95% CI: 521,542]). The observed count of NHWs (n=387) was less than expected ([inline-graphic 02], [95% CI: 455, 473]. The sub-group with the largest difference in observed vs. expected participants was MA women, n=376 observed, 306 (95% CI: 300, 312) expected.
conclusionsMexican Americans were significantly more likely to participate than expected, challenging the notion that ethnic minority populations are less likely to agree to research.
