The NIH Research Centers in Minority Institutions (RCMI): National and Public Health Impact as Measured by Collaborative Scientific Excellence, Investigator Development, and Community Engagement.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe National Institutes of Health (NIH) established the Research Centers in Minority Institutions (RCMI) Program in response to the Congressional language in House Report 98-911 to establish research centers in predominantly minority institutions that offered doctoral degrees in the health professions and/or health-related sciences. The National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) recognizes the critical role of the RCMI in conducting biomedical research and providing healthcare to communities impacted by health disparities. The RCMI Coordinating Center (RCMI-CC) supports the Consortium of 23 competitively funded RCMI Centers, with a collaborative infrastructure, to stimulate research partnerships and harness the research talents of the many gifted scientists and health professionals to collectively support investigator development, and advance health disparities research.
objectivesThis manuscript presents the national and public health impact of the RCMI-CC as it works to help RCMI achieve their primary goals.
methodsWe describe the organization of the RCMI Consortium and evaluate the impact of the overall RCMI Program, as measured by highly competitive NIH awards, high-impact publications, and other metrics. Results/Impact: In addition to the competitive research R01 and equivalent awards, publications, and patents, RCMI-CC implementation of the National Research Mentoring Network (NRMN), and health services research in RCMI-clinical research networks, collectively highlight the national and public health impact, as measured by collaborative scientific excellence, investigator development, and community engagement.
conclusionsThe RCMI-CC and RCMI Consortium collectively demonstrate national and public health impact, with externally validated quantifiable metrics and return on investment.
