The Prognostic Significance of Nativity, Enclave Residence, and Socioeconomic Status Among Hispanic Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Article in Annals of surgical oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundResidence in ethnic enclaves and nativity are both associated with survival in Hispanic patients with cancer, although their prognostic significance in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unknown. We aimed to determine the association between nativity, neighborhood socioeconomic status (nSES), and ethnic enclave residency with overall survival in Hispanic patients with HCC.
methodsHispanic patients diagnosed with HCC from 2004 to 2017 were identified in the Texas Cancer Registry. Existing indices were applied to tract-level 2000 US Census data to measure enclave residence and nSES. Enclaves were defined by seven measures. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to evaluate the association between nativity, enclave residency, and nSES with survival.
resultsAmong 9496 Hispanic patients with HCC, 2283 (24%) were foreign-born. Compared with US-born Hispanic patients, foreign-born Hispanic patients were less likely to present with localized HCC (45.3% vs. 48.8%, p = 0.03) and less likely to receive HCC treatment (53.9% vs. 47.6%, p < 0.001); however, foreign-born Hispanic patients had lower mortality in adjusted models (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 0.86, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.79-0.93). Neighborhood SES, but not enclave residence, was also associated with overall survival. Compared with those in low nSES non-enclaves, Hispanic patients in high nSES neighborhoods, with either enclave (aHR 0.80, 95% CI 0.72-0.88) or non-enclave (aHR 0.89, 95% CI 0.80-0.98) residence status and low nSES enclaves (aHR 0.93, 95% CI 0.86-0.98) had improved survival.
conclusionIn Hispanic patients with HCC, foreign birthplace and higher nSES, but not enclave residence, are associated with improved survival. Additional research on intersectionality between ethnicity, nativity, and neighborhood context is warranted.
