1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Acculturation has been shown to be relevant to health outcomes. However, methodological limitations remain in the existing literature, particularly the lack of psychometric validation of acculturation measures for Asian American population. As a result, little is known about distinct acculturation profiles within this population and how these profiles relate to perceived stress and health. This study employs latent profile analysis (LPA) to identify distinct acculturation profiles among 337 Asian Americans and to examine their associations with perceived health and perceived stress. LPA were used based on acculturated-related variables, including perceived acculturation, immigration generation, associated ethnic group, heritage language competency pressure, English competency pressure, pressure to acculturation, pressure against acculturation. We detected a 3-class solution: acculturated, bicultural, and enculturated. Compared to bicultural group, the acculturated group has statistically significant lower perceived stress (p < .001), higher perceived mental health (p < .001) and physical health (p < .001); the enculturated group reported significantly lower perceived mental health than the bicultural group (p <.001). These findings highlight nuanced differences in health perceptions across acculturation profiles. Notably, the enculturated group may be at elevated risk for poorer mental health outcomes, underscoring the need for culturally tailored mental health interventions. By elucidating how acculturation experiences impact perceived health and stress, this study offers practical insights for mental health professionals and healthcare providers, encouraging the development of tailored, culturally sensitive interventions for Asian American subgroups based on their acculturation experiences.
