Metabolic Syndrome, Modifiable Lifestyle Factors, and Sleep-Disordered Breathing: The Hispanic Community Health Study.
Observational study in Annals of behavioral medicine : a publication of the Society of Behavioral Medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundUS Hispanics/Latinos are disproportionately susceptible to metabolic syndrome (MetS), attributed in part to systemic inequities related to health and lifestyle factors such as low physical activity (PA) levels, diet quality, alcohol use, tobacco use, and sleep disorder. Gender and heritage group differences are vastly understudied and need to be examined in this heterogeneous population. PURPOSE: To examine the relationships between select health and lifestyle factors and MetS among Hispanic gender and heritage subgroups (Hypothesis 1) and determine whether gender and heritage moderate those relationships (Hypothesis 2).
methodsParticipants included 14,155 Hispanic Americans aged 18-76 (59% female, mean age 45.92 ± 13.97) from seven heritage subgroups. This secondary analysis of cross-sectional data from the observational Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL) dataset used hierarchical multinomial logistic regression to test Hypothesis 1; the dependent variable, MetS, included three categories delineating absence of MetS and presence of MetS with or without related medication use. Hayes' PROCESS macro tested Hypothesis 2.
resultsLow PA and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) each had significant (p < .001) predictive value of MetS group membership, whereas both low and high alcohol use (p < .001) were associated with decreased MetS risk. Cigarette pack-years were not significantly associated with MetS outcomes. Gender moderated the association between MetS and alcohol use (p < .001), cigarette pack-years (p < .001), and SDB (p < .001) such that the effects on MetS were higher in females than males. The association between MetS and diet quality (p < .001) was stronger among males than in females.
conclusionsGender and heritage differences were prominent among study variables.
