The Association of Social Determinants of Health on Monitoring for Disease Progression Among Patients With Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma.

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: To examine the association of race, ethnicity, and other social determinants of health (SDH) on receipt of optic nerve (ON) evaluation in accordance with National Quality Forum (NQF) and the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) guideline-based metrics. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study consisting of 13,582 patients with POAG receiving care across 12 tertiary care health. The odds of receiving ≥1 ON evaluations to monitor for glaucoma progression over 45 months of follow-up was evaluated. Results: White patients (61%) with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) had more guideline recommended ON evaluations during the 45-month follow-up period, compared with Asian American (52%) and Black (53%) patients (P < 0.001 for both). More non-Hispanic patients with POAG (58%) had ON evaluations in all 3 time periods compared with persons of Latinx ethnicity (52%) (P = 0.045). The odds of undergoing ON evaluations were 17% lower for Black patients compared with White patients (odds ratio [OR] = 0.83; confidence interval [CI], 0.74-0.94), 56% lower for patients living in isolated rural communities (OR = 0.44; CI, 0.25-0.77) compared to urban areas, and 9% lower for patients residing in more impoverished communities (OR = 0.91; CI, 0.86-0.96). Conclusions: Racial and ethnic minorities and those residing in lesser affluent or rural communities are less likely to receive monitoring for POAG progression in accordance with NQF and AAO guidelines. Translational Relevance: This study aimed to determine the association between SDH and receiving POAG testing according to clinical practice guidelines, with a goal of identifying factors contributing to disparities in care. This should facilitate development of targeted clinical interventions for vulnerable patients with POAG while factoring technology, economic sustainability, and policy.
