Association Between Social Determinants of Health and Communication Difficulties in Poststroke U.S. Hispanic and Non-Hispanic White Populations.

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
purposeThe relationship among ethnicity, social determinants of health (SDOH), and disparities in poststroke outcomes is complex, and the impact on communication difficulties is unclear. This study investigated the presence and nature of communication difficulties in poststroke non-Hispanic White (PsnHw) and Hispanic U.S. populations using population-level data.
methodWe performed a cross-sectional analysis of 2,861 non-Hispanic White and 353 Hispanic poststroke respondents included in the 2014-2018 National Health Interview Survey. Respondents self-reported difficulties communicating in their usual language, in addition to providing information relating to demographics and lifestyle, health care access and utilization, health status, and SDOH. We used univariate statistics, generalized linear models, and an exploratory mediation analysis, to characterize the pattern of differences between these cohorts, examine associations between variables and communication difficulties, and determine the potential intermediate role of cumulative SDOH on the likelihood of reporting communication difficulties.
resultsFindings indicated a more challenging life context for the poststroke Hispanic population due to SDOH disparities. Poverty and Internet use were associated with greater and lower odds of communication difficulties for PsnHw, respectively. The mediation analysis showed that ethnicity significantly affected communication difficulties, but only when mediated by SDOH. SDOH accounted for approximately two thirds of the total effect on reporting communication difficulties.
conclusionsThis study underscores the need for uniform measures of SDOH in prospective research and for interventions aimed at mitigating health disparities through addressing disparities in SDOH. Future research should focus on evaluating the effectiveness of such strategies in diverse ethnic and socioeconomic poststroke populations.
