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

introductionHealth and socioeconomic status (SES) are interrelated. Social mobility—a key concept in studying this relationship—is intra-generational mobility, where individuals are compared to their own past SES.

methodThis is a scoping review evaluating the effects of intra-generational social mobility especially downward mobility on health and health behaviors. All English studies released after 1995 that report the effect of social mobility on health or health behaviors were included.

resultMost of the studies evaluate mortality, mental disorders, physical diseases, and health behaviors as a health variable and use occupational class as a factor for determining social mobility. A significant number of studies stated that social mobility affects health and downward mobile people had worse health than stable high groups. However, some studies deny these effects. Several studies have examined the models and theories that show the relationship between health and social mobility including social causation, health selection, accumulation of disadvantages, and etc.

conclusionAmong the studies that investigated the models and theories justifying the relationship between health and social mobility, it seems that the social causation model and the accumulation of disadvantages model have more acceptance than the others.
