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
objectiveThe object of this study is to explore the impact of discretionary income on the overall well-being of Americans. DATA SOURCE: The data source used for this study was 2017 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data comprising 12 states that used the Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) module. STUDY
designMultivariable logistic regression models were used to analyze the relationship between discretionary income and self-reported health status after adjusting for common SDOH measures, sociodemographic factors, chronic conditions, and perspectives and experiences of respondents regarding specific aspects of their health. Average marginal effects (AME) were reported. DATA COLLECTION/EXTRACTION
methodsNot applicable. PRINCIPAL
findingsAt all income levels, those with discretionary income at the end of the month were 6-7 percentage points more likely to report better than average health than those with none, controlling for other factors (AME: 0.07, 95% CI: 0.02-0.12).
conclusionOur study suggests that discretionary income has a role to play in overall health and well-being that goes beyond that of disposable income and may be an important resource for diverse communities.
