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

Purpose: There is limited research on the relationship between structural environmental factors and genomics-related knowledge, self-efficacy, perceived importance, and communication. We examined the potential impact of racial segregation on these genomics-related outcomes among medically underserved patients. Methods: We analyzed data from a sample of 546 patients recruited from a primary care clinic in St. Louis, Missouri. Multivariable models were used to examine associations between racial composition of social environments across the life course and genomics-related knowledge, self-efficacy, perceived importance, and communication. Results: Non-Hispanic White patients reporting multiple past White social environments had higher genetic knowledge than non-Hispanic White patients reporting one or no past White social environments ( Conclusion: These findings indicate that structural factors may affect understanding of genetic information and communication about family history among medically underserved patients. Targeted interventions may increase the use of genetic services among this population and reduce health inequities.
