Experiences of Racism Associated with Self-Reported Hypertension Among African American/Black Individuals.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 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
purposeThis paper sought to understand how experiences of various levels of racism across multiple domains and geographical regions were associated with higher odds of hypertension among African American adults by sex.
methodsData were from the African American Identity, Socialization, Discrimination, and Outcomes Project, collected January-February 2020. Participants self-identified as African American/Black individuals, were 18 + years of age, and completed a Qualtrics survey with items measuring perceived experiences of racism and health. Hypertension diagnosis served as the outcome variable. The Experience of Discrimination Questionnaire assessed racist experiences in six areas: personal (insults, slurs), education, employment, housing, law, and police interaction. We conducted bivariate analyses examining the distribution of experiences of discrimination by age, sex, and region using logistic regression to understand how racism patterned by these factors impacted odds of hypertension.
resultsIn our sample (n = 1177), the distribution of racism experiences varied by sex and age. Additionally, reporting job discrimination and having a usual source of care were significantly associated with higher odds of hypertension in the overall sample (OR DISCUSSION: People reported experiencing racism in different domains as they aged. Findings indicate sex-based differences in the experiences of racism and its association with hypertension. Our study underscores the importance of understanding which experiences of racism are more salient, for whom, when, and with what impact.
