Associations between Socioeconomic Factors and Visit Adherence among Patients with Glaucoma in the All of Us Research Program.
Article in Ophthalmology. Glaucoma. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeTo identify socioeconomic factors associated with visit adherence among patients with glaucoma in a nationwide cohort.
designCross-sectional study. SUBJECTS: All subjects were participants in the National Institutes of Health All of Us Research Program. This study cohort consists of participants who were diagnosed with glaucoma and who answered the question on the Health Care Access and Utilization Survey regarding whether they have seen an eye care provider in the last 12 months.
methodsDescriptive analyses were conducted based on participant age, gender, race/ethnicity, insurance status, level of education, and income bracket. Multivariable logistic regression adjusting for these factors was used to generate odds ratios (ORs) for the association between socioeconomic factors and visit adherence.
main outcome measureVisit adherence, defined as reporting seeing an eye care provider in the last 12 months.
resultsAmong 4517 patients with glaucoma, 730 (16.3%) indicated that they had not seen or spoken to an eye doctor in the last 12 months. In multivariable models, those with some college education (OR: 1.91; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.19-3.04) and those with a college degree or advanced degree (OR: 2.25; 95% CI: 1.39-3.60) and those with the highest annual income of ≥ $200 000 (OR: 1.64; 95% CI: 1.10-2.45) were more likely to have seen an eye doctor in the past year compared with those in the lowest education and income categories, respectively.
conclusionLower income and education levels were significantly associated with lower odds of seeing an eye doctor in the past year among all patients with glaucoma in All of Us. This highlights an important health disparity and may inform subsequent interventions to promote improved adherence to clinical guidelines regarding eye care for glaucoma monitoring and management.
