Alcoholic cardiomyopathy mortality and social vulnerability index: A nationwide cross-sectional analysis.
Article in International journal of cardiology. Cardiovascular risk and prevention, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: Social vulnerability index (SVI) plays a pivotal role in the outcomes of cardiovascular diseases and prevalence of alcohol use. We evaluated the impact of the SVI on alcoholic cardiomyopathy (ACM) mortality. Methods: Mortality data from 1999 to 2020 and the SVI were obtained from CDC databases. Demographics such as age, sex, race/ethnicity, and geographic residence were obtained from death certificates. The SVI was divided into quartiles, with the fourth quartile (Q4) representing the highest vulnerability. Age-adjusted mortality rates across SVI quartiles were compared, and excess deaths due to higher SVI were calculated. Risk ratios were calculated using univariable Poisson regression. Results: A total of 2779 deaths were seen in Q4 compared to 1672 deaths in Q1. Higher SVI accounted for 1107 excess-deaths in the US and 0.05 excess deaths per 100,000 person-years (RR: 1.38). Similar trends were seen for both male (RR: 1.43) and female (RR: 1.67) populations. Higher SVI accounted for 0.06 excess deaths per 100,000 person-years in Hispanic populations (RR: 2.50) and 0.06 excess deaths per 100,000 person-years in non-Hispanic populations (RR: 1.46). Conclusion: Counties with elevated SVI experienced higher ACM mortality rates. Recognizing the impact of SVI on ACM mortality can guide targeted interventions and public health strategies, emphasizing health equity and minimizing disparities.
