Historical neighborhood redlining and bystander CPR disparities in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
Article in Resuscitation, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundOut-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is associated with low survival rates. Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is essential for improving outcomes, but its utilization remains limited, particularly among racial and ethnic minorities. Historical redlining, a practice that classified neighborhoods for mortgage risk in 1930s, may have lasting implications for social and health outcomes. This study sought to investigate the influence of redlining on the provision of bystander CPR during witnessed OHCA.
methodsWe conducted an analysis using data from the comprehensive Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival (CARES), encompassing 736,066 non-traumatic OHCA cases across the United States. The Home Owners' Loan Corporation (HOLC) map shapefiles were utilized to categorize census tracts of arrests into four grades (A signifying "best", B "still desirable", C "declining", and D "hazardous"). Multivariable hierarchical logistic regression models were employed to predict the likelihood of CPR provision, adjusting for various factors including age, sex, race/ethnicity, arrest location, calendar year, and state of occurrence. Additionally, we accounted for the percentage of Black residents and residents below poverty levels at the census tract level.
resultsAmong the 43,186 witnessed cases of OHCA in graded HOLC census tracts, 37.2% received bystander CPR. The rates of bystander CPR exhibited a gradual decline across HOLC grades, ranging from 41.8% in HOLC grade A to 35.8% in HOLC grade D. In fully adjusted model, we observed significantly lower odds of receiving bystander CPR in HOLC grades C (OR 0.89, 95% CI 0.81-0.98, p = 0.016) and D (OR 0.86, 95% CI 0.78-0.95, p = 0.002) compared to HOLC grade A.
conclusionRedlining, a historical segregation practice, is associated with reduced contemporary rates of bystander CPR during OHCA. Targeted CPR training in redlined neighborhoods may be imperative to enhance survival outcomes.
