Examining Health Care Access And Health Of Children Living In Homes Subsidized By The Low-Income Housing Tax Credit.
Article in Health affairs (Project Hope), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Although stable, high-quality housing improves children's physical and social-emotional health, little is known about the health of children living in buildings financed by the federal government's primary tool for constructing and renovating affordable rental housing: the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC). Using data from the National Health Interview Survey (2004-16) linked to data on LIHTC properties (1987-2016), this study provides national estimates for health care access and health status among low-income children living in LIHTC properties compared with low-income children not living in LIHTC properties. Children living in LIHTC properties were more likely to have had a well-child visit in the past twelve months and a dental visit in the past six months. These children also had a higher likelihood of chronic school absenteeism and current asthma. These exploratory findings suggest that policy makers should consider features of LIHTC policy as possible mechanisms to improve low-income children's health care access and health status while addressing the shortage of affordable housing in the US.
