A nationwide cross-sectional study on the association of patient-level factors with financial anxiety in the context of chronic medical conditions.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Patient-level characteristics associated with the prevalence and severity of financial anxiety have yet to be described. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of survey data assessing financial anxiety in patients with chronic medical conditions in December 2020. 1771 patients (42.6% response rate) participated in the survey. Younger age (19-35 age compared to ≥ 75 age) (β, 5.86; 95% CI 2.10-9.63), male sex (β, - 1.9; 95% CI - 3.1 to - 0.73), Hispanic/Latino race/ethnicity (compared with White patients) (β, 2.55; 95% CI 0.39-4.71), household size ≥ 4 (compare with single household) (β, 4.54; 95% CI 2.44-6.64), household income of ≥ $96,000-$119,999 (compared with ≤ $23,999) (β, - 3.2; 95% CI - 6.3 to 0.04), single marital status (compared with married) (β, 2.18; 95% CI 0.65-3.71), unemployment (β, 2.07; 95% CI 0.39-3.74), high-school education (compared with advanced degrees) (β, 3.10; 95% CI 1.32-4.89), lack of insurance coverage (compared with private insurance) (β, 6.05; 95% CI 2.66-9.45), more comorbidities (≥ 3 comorbidities compared to none) (β, 2.95; 95% CI 1.00-4.90) were all independently associated with financial anxiety. Patients who are young, female, unmarried, and representing vulnerable sub-populations are at elevated risk for financial anxiety.
