1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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) estimates the vulnerability of communities to disasters, encompassing 4 separate domains (socioeconomic, household composition and disability, minority status and language, and housing and transportation). The SVI has been linked with risk and outcomes of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Objectives: This scoping review explored the literature between the SVI and CVD continuum, with a goal to identify gaps in understanding the impact of the SVI on CVD and to elucidate future research opportunities. Methods: We systematically searched 7 databases from inception to May 19, 2023, for articles that explored the relationship between the SVI and CVD care continuum, including prevention, diagnosis and prevalence, treatment, and health outcomes. Extracted data included SVI ranking type, populations, outcomes, and quality of studies. Results: Twelve studies evaluated the impact of SVI on the CVD continuum. Five studies explored mortality outcomes, 3 studies explored CVD risk factor prevalence, 4 studies explored CVD prevalence, 1 study explored access to health care in those with CVD, 1 study explored the use of cardiac rehabilitation services, and 1 study explored heart failure readmission rates, all of which revealed statistically significant associations with SVI. All studies included the SVI aggregate percentile ranking, while 5 studies focused on individual thematic components. We identified gaps in understanding the SVI's impact on CVD care continuum, particularly regarding CVD prevention and early detection. Conclusions: This review provides a comprehensive understanding of the SVI's application in assessing various aspects of the CVD care continuum and highlights potential avenues for future research.
