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

Description The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) put forth institutional requirements to implement healthcare disparity education in resident and fellow curricula in an effort to decrease these inequities. Healthcare disparities stem from many different factors. These may include access to care, insurance status, socioeconomic status, health literacy, language barriers, and the way healthcare systems function. These factors may have interactions that lead to poor health outcomes. As researchers and educators, we need to find a way to research these issues in more depth as well as teach these concepts to our resident physicians. Here, we discuss El Paso, Texas, a city located on the United States-Mexico border, which is predominately Latinx. We also discuss increased rates of diabetes, sexually transmitted diseases, and liver, stomach, and cervical cancers. Common obstacles to healthcare include language and literacy barriers, lack of transportation, and lack of healthcare professionals. We outline 4 strategies for change to address these disparities. By implementing these strategies in ACGME education for residents, healthcare disparities in the El Paso community can be addressed and eliminated.
