How immigration shapes health disadvantages and what healthcare organizations can do to deliver more equitable care.
Article in Healthcare management forum, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
That immigration is a determinant of health and that immigration systems themselves contribute to structural disadvantage remains under-addressed within healthcare in Canada. This article offers context for how immigration shapes health, and recommendations for how health systems can be better prepared to respond to the diverse needs of immigrants and migrants (together referred to as im/migrants), based on a community-based research project in British Columbia. Findings call attention to the varied and intersecting ways in which immigration status, access to health insurance, language, experiences of trauma and discrimination, lack of support for health system limits access to healthcare, and the roles community-based organizations play in supporting access. Recommendations are intended to help make sure that all health services are accessible to everyone, and move beyond a homogenizing category of "newcomers" into practical, meaningful strategies that attend to diverse and intersecting community needs.
