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

•Othering is relevant to public health as an analytical lens that helps to understand the link between minority status and health inequalities.•To investigate health inequalities caused by Othering, it is necessary to include the semantic-symbolic construction of Others.•Othering operates as a discursive practice and occurs on multiple levels.•Research on Othering requires consideration of intersectionality and power structures derived from socially and historically grown hierarchies.•Interventions against Othering require deconstructive concepts - this means deconstructing the institutionalized and embodied normality of the We.
