Where you live matters: socioeconomic disparities in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest incidence and survival in Western Australia - A population-based cohort study.

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
Aims: Investigate socioeconomic differences in the incidence and odds of survival of adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrests [OHCA] in Western Australia [WA]. Methods: OHCA data for patients aged 15 years and older were sourced for the period 2015-2024 for WA. Socioeconomic status was classified using the Australian Bureau of Statistics Index of Relative Socio-Economic Disadvantage. Socioeconomic status was attributed based on each patient's residential address and classified in quintiles. Crude and age-standardised incidence rates per 100,000 adult population was calculated for all OHCA. Survival (return of spontaneous circulation at hospital arrival and survival to 30-days) was assessed for resuscitation-attempted OHCA with medical aetiology. Incidence by socioeconomic quintile was modelled using negative binomial linear regression, and odds of survival by socioeconomic quintile using logistic regression. Results: A total of 23,975 OHCAs were attended by emergency medical services in WA, with a crude incidence of 117.34 per 100,000 population per year. Outcomes varied across the socioeconomic gradient, with higher incidence and poorer survival in more disadvantaged populations. Incidence decreased from 193.81/100,000 in the most disadvantaged quintile to 73.18/100,000 in the least disadvantaged quintile ( Conclusion: Greater socioeconomic disadvantage is associated with a greater incidence of OHCA and poorer survival outcomes.
