Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Perceived Healthcare Discrimination and Health Outcomes.
Article in Journal of general internal medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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
backgroundExperiencing discrimination in the healthcare system may have important implications for health outcomes among racial and ethnic minoritized groups and is a key factor in the disparities observed in healthcare across different races and ethnicities. This study's objective is to examine the relationship between perceived healthcare discrimination and self-reported health status among racial and ethnic minorities.
methodsThis is a cross-sectional analysis of data from the "All of Us" research program. The study uses the Discrimination in Medical Settings Scale and Overall Health Survey to assess healthcare discrimination and health status. Multivariable logistic regression models were used, adjusting for demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. Adults 18 years or older with self-identified racial and ethnic backgrounds who completed surveys on healthcare discrimination and health status were included. Participants identified as Asian, Black or African American (AA), Hispanic or Latino, non-Hispanic White (NHW), Multiracial, and Other.
resultsThe study analyzed data from 92,321 participants, among whom 78% were NHW, Hispanic/Latinos (8%), Black/AAs (7%), and others (7%). Approximately 49% (3070) of Black/AA, 39% (2839) Hispanic/Latinos, and 49% (768) of Multiracial individuals reported experiencing healthcare discrimination, along with 35% (25338) of Whites. Participants who experienced healthcare discrimination had higher odds of self-reported poor health status (aOR 2.19, 95%CI 2.12-2.26). These associations persisted across all analyzed racial and ethnic groups in adjusted models. DISCUSSION: This study highlights the association between perceived healthcare discrimination and poor self-reported health among racial and ethnic minoritized individuals. Implementing strategies to reduce discrimination within the healthcare system, such as cultural humility training for all staff and inclusive healthcare policies, is critical for improving healthcare quality and health equity.
