Sickle cell disease among Latinx in California.
Article in PloS one, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionAfter African Americans, Latinx are the second largest population affected by Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) in the U.S. However, research has largely ignored how this devastating rare blood disorder specifically affects Latinx nationwide.
methodsThis study compared demographics, genotypes, primary insurance, and health care utilization among Latinx and non-Latinx Californians living with SCD, using data from the California SCD Data Collection Program (2016-2018) and newborn screening cases 2000-2017.
resultsStemming from 6,837 SCD patients, 501(7%) were Latinx. Latinx with SCD (Lx-SCD) were statistically significantly younger than non-Latinx (NLx-SCD) counterparts. Within both groups, females predominated, with 70% being insured by Medicaid. Mean Emergency Department encounters were statistically significantly lower among Lx-SCD adults. DISCUSSION: Lx-SCD differ in age, genotype, and Emergency Department utilization, when compared to NLx-SCD counterparts in California. Latinx are now the largest racial and/or ethnic group in the US, and their presence in SCD population is expected to grow. Therefore, their specific demographic, genotypic, and health care utilization characteristics merit attention to inform policies and programs that will improve their health.
