Beyond main effects: Age, education, and immigration history shape self-rated health among Latin Americans in Canada.

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
Background: Latin Americans represent one of the fastest growing populations in Canada, yet remain largely absent from national health research. Recent descriptive data suggest Latin Americans report higher SRH than the Canadian average, but little is known about how sociodemographic and migration-related factors shape these outcomes. Design and Methods: This study used pooled data from the 2015-2018 cycles of the Canadian Community Health Survey ( Results: Across all models, Latin Americans did not differ significantly from Whites in odds of reporting fair/poor SRH (Model 4 OR = 0.88, 95% CI [0.65, 1.19]). However, significant interaction effects indicated that the association between ethnicity and SRH varied by age, education, and immigration history. Relative to Whites, older Latin Americans and those with primary education demonstrated higher odds of fair/poor SRH, whereas some more recent immigrant subgroups demonstrated comparatively lower odds. Conclusions: Aggregate comparisons may obscure important heterogeneity in the association between ethnicity and SRH across sociodemographic and immigration-related subgroups. Findings highlight the importance of intersectional and disaggregated analyses in understanding health inequities among Latin Americans in Canada and underscore the need for culturally responsive policies that address structural and migration-related inequities.
