Social Determinants of Health and Healthcare Access among Latina/x/o Sexual and Gender Minority Adults.
Article in Research square, 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
Purpose: This study aims to identify current social determinants of health (SDOH) and healthcare access barriers impacting health outcomes among Latina, Latinx, and Latino (Latina/x/o) sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals. Methods: We conducted cross-sectional surveys of 521 Latina/x/o adults with a focus on SGM individuals from November 2022 to June 2023 in Cook County, IL. We recruited using social media groups and in person community venues geared towards Latina/x/o and/or Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual/Transgender/Questioning (LGBTQ+) individuals. We examined associations between demographic predictors and SDOH (housing, food, and job insecurity) or healthcare access outcomes (insurance status, access to primary care, and time since last provider visit) using multivariable logistic regression. Results: Respondents included 68.8% (n=329) SGM individuals, of whom 48.6% (n=157) identified as gay or lesbian, 42.7% (n=138) identified as bisexual, pansexual, or queer, and 15.8% (n=48) identified as transgender. Across sexual and gender identities, our study population had a high burden of housing insecurity (n=286, 56.9%), food insecurity (n=177, 35.3%), and job insecurity (n=90, 27.8%). There were also a high proportion of uninsured individuals (n=120, 25.2%) and people who had not seen a provider in the last year (n=188, 36.2%). Conclusion: Public health interventions and policy reform are urgently needed to address the SDOH and healthcare barriers that drive health disparities for the diverse groups within Latina/x/o SGM populations.
