Multilevel Associations Between Outlet Characteristics, Contextual Factors and Firearm Violence at On-Premise Alcohol Outlets in the United States.

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
introductionFirearm violence is a major public health concern in the United States (US). Alcohol use and features of the alcohol environment, including outlet type and alcohol control policies, are factors known to increase the risk of firearm violence. On-premise alcohol outlets, where alcohol is sold and consumed on site, may influence firearm violence risk through modifications in the physical environment, social processes and policy contexts.
methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study examining the association between multilevel characteristics of on-premise alcohol outlets and other social ecological conditions and shooting incidents across 69 US cities from 2022-2023. Shooting incidents were spatially linked to outlets within a 10-m buffer. A multivariable generalised linear mixed model with a logit link assessed associations between outlet, neighbourhood, and state factors and the odds of a shooting incident.
resultsThe 19,472 on-premise outlets experienced 290 shooting incidents during the study period. Compared with bars, restaurants (OR = 0.58; 95% CI 0.42, 0.80) and other outlets (OR = 0.58; 95% CI 0.34, 1.00) had lower odds of experiencing a shooting. Greater neighbourhood socioeconomic advantage (per 1 SD increase: OR = 0.64; 95% CI 0.56, 0.74) and stronger state-level firearm laws (per 1 SD increase: 0.72; 95% CI 0.53, 0.97) were also found to be negatively associated with shooting incidents. DISCUSSION AND
conclusionsFindings align with prior research linking stronger firearm laws, neighbourhood advantage and outlet type to reduced firearm violence risk. Multilevel prevention strategies addressing both structural and outlet-specific factors may help reduce firearm violence in on-premise alcohol outlets.
