Neighbourhood disadvantage impacts on pulmonary function in patients with sarcoidosis.
Article in ERJ open research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: This multicentre, international, prospective cohort study evaluated whether patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis living in neighbourhoods with greater material and social disadvantage experience worse clinical outcomes. Methods: The area deprivation index and the Canadian Index of Multiple Deprivation evaluate neighbourhood-level disadvantage in the US and Canada, with higher scores reflecting greater disadvantage. Multivariable linear regression evaluated associations of disadvantage with baseline forced vital capacity (FVC) or diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide ( Results: We included 477 US and 122 Canadian patients with sarcoidosis. Higher disadvantage was not associated with survival or baseline FVC. The highest disadvantage quartile was associated with lower baseline Conclusion: Patients with sarcoidosis living in high disadvantage neighbourhoods experience worse baseline lung function and more rapid lung function decline, highlighting the need for better understanding of how neighbourhood-level factors impact individual patient outcomes.
