Racial/Ethnic Inequity in Transit-Based Spatial Accessibility to COVID-19 Vaccination Sites.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
With the ongoing spread of COVID-19, vaccination stands as an effective measure to control and mitigate the impact of the disease. However, due to the unequal distribution of COVID-19 vaccination sites, people can have different levels of spatial accessibility to COVID-19 vaccination. This study adopts an improved gravity-based model to measure the racial/ethnic inequity in transit-based spatial accessibility to COVID-19 vaccination sites in the Chicago Metropolitan Area. The results show that Black-majority and Hispanic-majority neighborhoods have significantly lower transit-based spatial accessibility to COVID-19 vaccination sites compared to White-majority neighborhoods. This research concludes that minority-dominated inner-city neighborhoods, despite better public transit coverage, are still disadvantaged in terms of transit-based spatial accessibility to COVID-19 vaccination sites. This is probably due to their higher population densities, which increase the competition for the limited supply of COVID-19 vaccination sites within each catchment area.
