Inequities in Intimate Partner Homicide: Social Determinants of Health Mediate Racial/Ethnic Disparities.

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
introductionIntimate partner violence accounts for up to one half of all homicides of women in the U.S. Rates of intimate partner homicide are associated with both race/ethnicity and social determinants of health, but their relative contribution is incompletely understood.
methodsThe authors used negative binomial regression to model the relationship between counties' racial/ethnic composition and their rates of intimate partner homicide of women, controlling for urbanicity, median income, gender pay gap, unemployment, school funding, and violent crime rate. Data from 49 states and the District of Columbia between 2016 and 2021 were used. Analyses were conducted in 2024.
resultsIn unadjusted analysis, counties with a lower proportion of White residents experienced higher rates of intimate partner homicide (incidence rate ratios [IRR]=1.11; 95% CIs=1.08, 1.13). When controlling for social determinants of health, this association was not observed (IRR=1.01; 95% CI=0.97, 1.04). Median income, school funding, and violent crime rate were independent predictors of intimate partner homicide in the multivariate model.
conclusionsRacial/ethnic composition of a population does not independently predict its rate of intimate partner homicide when controlling for social determinants of health. Racial/ethnic inequities in intimate partner homicide are largely attributable to structural factors, which may be modifiable through policy changes.
