Inequalities in health and resources between siblings of individuals with and without mental health disorder: an observational study using the French national health data system.
Observational study in European journal of public health, 2025. 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
The aim of the present study was to describe the effect of an individual's mental health disorder on the resources of his or her adult siblings. A subject rarely analyzed on a large scale. The French National Health Data System (SNDS) collects data on individuals, including their characteristics and the types of healthcare used. A national observational sectional case-control study included individuals covered as of 1 January 2019 and receiving yearly at least one healthcare reimbursement in 2019 including their SNDS data collected from 2013 to 2018. The main variables of interest were a Complementary Universal Health Coverage (CUHC) granted to people who had limited resources. There is also a long-term disease (LTD) status qualifying also for 100% for a specific disease and an ecological index of social deprivation of the place of residence. Conditions were also collected using a specific tool including LTD and hospital diagnosis. Analyzed siblings included 280 709 cases with at least one member suffering from a mental health disorder and 561 418 randomly selected control individuals were addressed using a multilevel model. Siblings of people with mental health problems were more likely to benefit from CUHC or to live in the most deprived area. In addition, the study also highlighted the importance of parental background, which appears to be poorer than in the control population. Social inequalities are particularly marked among the siblings of a person suffering from mental health disorder. Further studies are needed to better understand and enlarge these observational results.
