Neighborhood Physical Disinvestment and Incident Diabetes between visits 1 and 2 of the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL).
Article in Journal of urban health : bulletin of the New York Academy of Medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Neighborhood-scale environmental factors, including disinvestment in infrastructure, may impact cardiometabolic disease risk. To our knowledge, no prior studies have investigated the association between neighborhood disinvestment and incident diabetes. We used a virtual street audit of Google Street View Imagery to generate a neighborhood disinvestment score for participants' residential addresses in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL). An item response theory model was fit to indicators (litter, graffiti, under-maintained buildings, bars on windows, and abandoned buildings) to form a scale measuring a latent level of disinvestment. Ordinary kriging was used to estimate levels for each residential address within the HCHS/SOL census tracts via spatial interpolation. HCHS/SOL is a longitudinal cohort study of self-identified Hispanic/Latino adults in the Bronx, Chicago, Miami, and San Diego. Using covariate-adjusted and survey-weighted Poisson regression models with data from 9120 participants free of diabetes at baseline (2008-2011), we investigated the association between neighborhood disinvestment and incident diabetes at visit 2 (2014-2017). A sensitivity analysis included only those who did not move during the follow-up period. A one-standard deviation increase in neighborhood disinvestment score was associated with a 13% (95% CI, 1-23%) lower risk of incident diabetes when adjusting for age, sex, education, income, study center/heritage, years in the US, family history, and a neighborhood socioeconomic index. Our sensitivity analysis yielded qualitatively similar results with lower precision. Overall, our analysis does not support the hypothesis that neighborhood physical disinvestment is associated with incident type 2 diabetes in this Hispanic/Latino population.
