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

backgroundPersistent area-level poverty may be associated with long-term social and economic disinvestment, which can contribute to social risks and financial difficulties for individuals. This study examines the associations between census tract poverty and the prevalence of social risks and financial hardship among Black cancer survivors.

methodsData were used from 4066 participants in the population-based Detroit Research on Cancer Survivors cohort. Census tract poverty was categorized as persistent (≥20% of residents in poverty for 30+ years), current (≥20% currently in poverty), and low (<20% in poverty). Participants self-reported social risks related to food, housing, utilities, access to care, and safety as well as material and behavioral financial hardship. Prevalence ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated with modified Poisson models controlling for sociodemographic and cancer-related factors.

resultsOverall, 36% of participants reported any social risks. The prevalence was higher in persistent (45%) relative to both current (40%) and low-poverty areas (25%). The prevalence of each social risk and of behavioral financial hardship was higher in current and persistent versus low-poverty areas in unadjusted models but most attenuated in adjusted models. The adjusted prevalence of any social risk was 21% higher in both persistent (95% CI, 7%-37%) and current (95% CI, 7%-36%) compared with low-poverty areas. Area poverty was not associated with financial hardship in adjusted models.

conclusionsLiving in current but not persistent or persistent high-poverty areas is associated with a higher prevalence of social risks. Residents of high-poverty areas may represent a priority population for screening and intervention.
