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

An individual's disease risk is affected by the populations that they belong to, due to shared genetics and environmental factors. The study of fine-scale populations in clinical care is important for identifying and reducing health disparities and for developing personalized interventions. To assess patterns of clinical diagnoses and healthcare utilization by fine-scale populations, we leveraged genetic data and electronic medical records from 35,968 patients as part of the UCLA ATLAS Community Health Initiative. We defined clusters of individuals using identity by descent, a form of genetic relatedness that utilizes shared genomic segments arising due to a common ancestor. In total, we identified 376 clusters, including clusters with patients of Afro-Caribbean, Puerto Rican, Lebanese Christian, Iranian Jewish and Gujarati ancestry. Our analysis uncovered 1,218 significant associations between disease diagnoses and clusters and 124 significant associations with specialty visits. We also examined the distribution of pathogenic alleles and found 189 significant alleles at elevated frequency in particular clusters, including many that are not regularly included in population screening efforts. Overall, this work progresses the understanding of health in understudied communities and can provide the foundation for further study into health inequities.
