Neighborhoods and Incident Cardiometabolic Disease in People With Disability.
Article in American journal of preventive medicine, 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
introductionThe age-adjusted prevalence of heart disease in people with disability is almost threefold that of people without disability. Social determinants of health are important for reducing cardiometabolic risk by providing opportunities for physical activity, healthy eating, and preventive health care. Yet, little research has examined how social determinants of health are associated with cardiometabolic disease in adults with physical disability. This study examined how neighborhood environments reduce or exacerbate risk of incident cardiometabolic disease in adults with physical disability.
methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study using a sample of 27,224 Medicare beneficiaries (2008-2016) with a diagnosis of cerebral palsy, spina bifida, multiple sclerosis, or spinal cord injury, who received social security disability income prior to enrollment. Cardiometabolic disease was identified using International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification/ICD-10-CM codes over 3 years of follow-up. Measures of the neighborhood environment came from the National Neighborhood Data Archive and linked to individual residential ZIP codes. Cox regression models estimated hazard ratios for incident cardiometabolic disease, adjusting for age, sex, race/ethnicity, insurance coverage, and comorbid conditions. Analysis was conducted in 2023-2024.
resultsOf the 27,224 adults with physical disability, 49.5% had an incident cardiometabolic diagnosis over 3-year observation period. Net of covariates, residence in neighborhoods with more recreational facilities and less traffic was associated with reduced risk of incident cardiometabolic disease, whereas a greater density of grocery stores was associated with increased risk of disease.
conclusionsFindings highlight the importance of considering social determinants of health for mitigating or exacerbating the risk of cardiometabolic disease in adults with physical disability.
