Association of US Nativity and Length of US Residence With Cardiometabolic Risk Factors, by Disaggregated Race and Ethnicity.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors may vary by disaggregated race and ethnicity categories, and by acculturation-related factors. We evaluated the association between nativity and length of US residence, and prevalence of diabetes, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia by select disaggregated race and ethnicity groups.
methodsWe conducted a pooled cross-sectional study of 218 158 US adults from the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (2013-2022). Nativity (US born, non-US born) and length of US residence (≥15 years or <15 years) were used as select proxies for acculturation. Self-reported cardiometabolic risk factors included diabetes, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia.
resultsResults showed substantial heterogeneity among both aggregated and disaggregated racial and ethnic groups. Nativity (US born versus non-US born) was significantly associated with increased hypertension prevalence among Hispanic adults (odds ratio [OR], 1.26 [95% CI, 1.15-1.39]), whereas among detailed categories the OR varied from 0.68 (95% CI, 0.51-0.93) among Puerto Rican adults to 1.34 (95% CI, 1.18-1.52) among Mexican adults. For the association between length of US residence and hypercholesterolemia, the OR for all Non-Hispanic Asian adults was 1.18 (95% CI, 0.92-1.51), whereas results varied in detailed categories from 1.00 (95% CI, 0.64-1.57) among Indian adults to 1.69 (95% CI, 1.08-2.64) among Chinese adults.
conclusionThe association between US nativity or length of US residence and cardiometabolic risk factors varies by disaggregated race and ethnicity among Hispanic and Non-Hispanic Asian adults. Future studies may evaluate comprehensive measures of acculturation and assess other race and ethnicity groups to inform tailored efforts to improve cardiometabolic risk factor prevention and treatment.
