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

backgroundDuring the last decades, there has been a great interest on the link between macroeconomic conditions and health. More precisely, many studies had studied as health outcome cardiovascular disease mortality, focusing in different countries, determinants, and using numerous econometric techniques. Due to its importance, in this paper, we analyse cardiovascular disease mortality across the 17 Spanish regions over the period 2002-2019.

methodsIn doing so, we estimated several panel data models considering differences by sub-periods of time while also considering gender differences. That is, we transmit a difference on previous evidence by considering a longer period of time and different explanatory factors, so we provide new highlights for Spain.

resultsOur empirical results show that: (i) both socioeconomic and environmental factors have a significant importance; (ii) political factors appear not to be significant; and (iii) there exists a Mediterranean (macro-region) cardiovascular disease mortality pattern.

conclusionsThese results may have usefulness for cardiovascular disease mortality prevention in Spain.
