Negative social determinants of health are linked to lung cancer screening underutilization.

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
introductionThis study aimed to examine the association between social determinants of health (SDOH) and lung cancer screening (LCS) utilization.
methodsWe analyzed data from 15,957 LCS-eligible individuals in the 2022 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System survey. Primary outcomes included ever having (lifetime) LCS and meeting LCS recommendations (i.e., annual LCS). Multivariable logistic regression models examined associations between LCS outcomes and 12 adverse SDOH factors, controlling for covariates (i.e., demographics, diagnosis of asthma/COPD, and perceived general health status).
resultsLCS-eligible individuals with more adverse SDOH had lower odds of ever having LCS and being up to date. Those with ≥5 adverse SDOH had the lowest odds of having lifetime LCS (AOR = 0.58, 95%CI: 0.45-0.74) and meeting LCS recommendations (AOR = 0.49, 95%CI: 0.36-0.65) compared to those with none. Life dissatisfaction, lack of social and emotional support, housing insecurity, lack of health insurance, and cost as a barrier for needed medical care were independently associated with lower LCS uptake.
conclusionsHaving more adverse SDOH was associated with a lower likelihood of having lifetime LCS and meeting the recommendation, with life dissatisfaction, lack of social and emotional support, housing insecurity, lack of health insurance, and medical care cost being independently associated factors.
