The moderating role of neighborhood disadvantage on the link between functional limitations and self-rated health.
Article in PloS one, 2023. 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
backgroundSelf-rated health is an important health outcome and determinant of health. Improvements to our understanding on self-rated health could help design plans and strategies to improve self-rated health and achieve other preferred health outcomes. This study examined whether the link between functional limitations and self-rated health varies by neighborhood socioeconomic status.
methodsThis study used the Midlife in the United States study linked with the Social Deprivation Index developed by the Robert Graham Center. Our sample consist of noninstitutionalized middle to older adults in the United States (n = 6,085). Based on stepwise multiple regression models, we computed adjusted odds ratios to examine the relationships between neighborhood socioeconomic status, functional limitations, and self-rated health.
resultsRespondents in the socioeconomically disadvantaged neighborhoods were older, had higher percentage of females, non-White respondents, lower educational attainment, lower perceived neighborhood quality, and worse health status with greater number of functional limitations than those in socioeconomically advantaged neighborhoods. Results showed a significant interaction was found where neighborhood-level discrepancies in self-rated health was biggest among individuals with highest number of functional limitations (B = -0.28, 95% CI[0.53, -0.04], p = 0.025). Specifically, individuals with the highest number of functional limitations from the disadvantaged neighborhoods had higher self-rated health compared to those from advantaged neighborhoods.
conclusionsOur study findings highlight that neighborhood discrepancy in self-rated health is underestimated particularly among those with severe functional limitations. Moreover, when interpreting self-rated health status, values should not be taken face value, and should be considered together with the environmental conditions of where one resides.
