1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction The Florida International University (FIU) Green Family Neighborhood Health Education Learning Program (NeighborhoodHELP) in Miami-Dade County serves communities impacted by adverse social determinants of health. This study identified sociodemographic factors affecting control of diabetes and hypertension among NeighborhoodHELP patients. Methods This non-concurrent cohort study evaluated NeighborhoodHELP patients who received care at mobile health centers (MHCs) utilizing de-identified data extracted from the MHCs' clinical quality metrics data set for the 2018-2019 fiscal year. A total of 143 eligible adults with diabetes and 222 adults with hypertension were identified. Condition control was defined as blood pressure ≤ 130 mmHg (systolic) and ≤ 80 mmHg (diastolic) or hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ≤ 7% (diabetes). Association with age, gender, ethnicity, marital status, language, service area, income per-capita, and medical student assignment was explored using logistic regression. Results The model showed decreased diabetes control likelihood among Haitian-Creole speakers (OR: 0.13; 95% CI: 0.02-0.75). Odds of diabetes control were greater in two discrete areas serviced by the program, one known as Hippocrates (OR: 4.9; 95% CI: 1.23-19.37) and the other Semmelweis (OR: 3.71; 95% CI: 1.07-12.83). Income greater than $10,000 increased hypertension control likelihood (OR: 2.22; 95% CI: 1.03-4.8). Conclusions Among NeighborhoodHELP patients, geographic region and language impact diabetes control, while income affects hypertension control. Further research is warranted to identify the role of other factors.
