Impact of social vulnerability on cardiac arrest mortality in the United States, 2016-2020.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Importance: Cardiac arrest is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality, with an estimated 340,000 out-of-hospital and 292,000 in-hospital cardiac arrest events per year in the U.S. Survival rates are lower in certain racial and socioeconomic groups. Objective: To examine the impact of social determinants on cardiac arrest mortality among adults stratified by age, race, and sex in the U.S. Design: A county-level cross-sectional longitudinal study using death data between 2016 and 2020 from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research (WONDER) database. Setting: Using the multiple causes of death dataset from the CDC's WONDER database, cardiac arrests were identified using the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), tenth revision, clinical modification codes. Participants: Individuals aged 15 years or more whose death was attributed to cardiac arrest. Exposures: Social vulnerability index (SVI), reported by the CDC, is a composite measure that includes socioeconomic vulnerability, household composition, disability, minority status and language, and housing and transportation domains. Main outcomes and measures: Cardiac arrest mortality per 100,000 adults. Results: Overall age-adjusted cardiac arrest mortality (AAMR) during the study period was 95.6 per 100,000 persons. The AAMR was higher for men as compared with women (119.6 vs. 89.9 per 100,000) and for Black, as compared with White, adults (150.4 vs. 92.3 per 100,000). The AAMR increased from 64.8 per 100,000 persons in counties in Quintile 1 (Q1) of SVI to 141 per 100,000 persons in Quintile 5, with an average increase of 13% (95% CI: 9.8-16.9) in AAMR per quintile increase. Conclusion and relevance: Mortality from cardiac arrest varies widely, with a more than 2-fold difference between the counties with the highest and lowest social vulnerability, highlighting the differential burden of cardiac arrest deaths throughout the U.S. based on social determinants of health.
