Food Insecurity, Missed Workdays, And Hospitalizations Among Working-Age US Adults With Diabetes.
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 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
Food insecurity is associated with poor clinical outcomes among adults with diabetes, but associations with nonclinical outcomes, such as missed work, have not been well characterized. Our objective was to assess the associations between food insecurity, health-related missed workdays, and overnight hospitalizations. We pooled National Health Interview Survey data from the period 2011-18 to analyze food insecurity among 13,116 US adults ages 18-65 who had diabetes. Experiencing food insecurity, compared with being food secure, was associated with increased odds of reporting any health-related missed workdays, more than twice the rate of health-related missed workdays, and increased odds of overnight hospitalization within the prior twelve months. There was no significant association between food insecurity and the number of nights spent hospitalized. These findings underscore the broad impacts of food insecurity on health and wellness for working-age adults with diabetes. When weighing the costs and benefits of proposed interventions to address food insecurity, policy makers should consider potential benefits related to productivity in addition to implications for health care use.
