Income-Related Inequalities in Future Health Prospects.
Article in Health economics, 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
Measuring health disparities is key to monitoring health systems, but hitherto disparities in the individual risk people face about their future health has been neglected. This paper integrates individual health risk into income-related health inequality measurement. We develop a rank dependent health inequality index that considers inequalities in each individual's expected future health and the dispersion of their future health prospects. It is useful when a social planner wants to account for risk averse preferences in the assessment of income-related inequalities of future health prospects. The empirical application using Australian longitudinal data highlights that neglecting individual risk underestimates income-related inequalities in future health prospects since the poor not only face worse expected future health, but also faced greater dispersion in their future health prospects compared to the rich.
