Not everyone benefits equally from Sunday alcohol sales bans: socioeconomic differences in alcohol consumption and alcohol-attributable mortality.
Article in International journal of mental health and addiction, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We examined socioeconomic variations in the association of off-premises Sunday alcohol sales bans and alcohol consumption and alcohol-attributable mortality in the United States. We analyzed associations between Sunday sales ban presence and alcohol consumption patterns, allowing for a differential effect by education in fixed-effects regression models using data from the 2000-2019 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. Mortality data from the National Vital Statistics System (2000-2019) were analyzed in interrupted time-series analysis to test the effect of lifting the Sunday sales ban in Minnesota (07/01/2017) on alcohol-attributable mortality. Regression analyses indicated lower alcohol consumption when Sunday sales bans were in place, with an overall stronger effect on those with high education. The repeal of the Minnesota ban resulted in a significant mortality increase, especially among individuals with high education. While overall effective, off-premises Sunday alcohol sales bans appear inadequate to address socioeconomic inequalities in the alcohol-attributable health burden.
