1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo determine the extent to which African-American women's early-life residence in urban neighborhoods with mortgage discrimination (compared to neighborhoods without mortgage discrimination) is associated with preterm birth (< 37 weeks, PTB).

methodsStratified and multivariable binominal regression analyses were performed on a Chicago transgenerational dataset of African-American women (born 1989-1991) and their infants (born 2005-2017) with appended Home Mortgage Disclosure Act and Index of Concentration at the Extremes (ICE) data.

resultsIn mortgage discriminated neighborhoods, the proportion of non-Hispanic White residents exceeded that of neighborhoods without mortgage discrimination: 84% vs. 31%, p < 0.01. Additionally, mean ICE

conclusionsUrban African-American women's early-life residence in predominately non-Hispanic White, mortgage discriminated neighborhoods is associated with an increased risk of PTB, particularly its' early component, independent of adulthood risk status.
