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
Objective: We evaluated associations between implementation of Florida Senate Bill 1718 and self-reported physical and mental health among Hispanic and non-Hispanic Black adults, and examined whether these associations differed by cancer survivorship. Methods: Using 2022-2024 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data, Hispanic and non-Hispanic Black adults in Florida were compared with those in Southern control states; cancer survivors were propensity-matched 1:2 to adults without cancer. Survey-weighted difference-in-differences and triple-difference models estimated changes in self-reported poor physical and mental health days. Parallel pre-policy trends were assessed using event-study models on an extended 2020-2024 panel, and p values for state-comparative models were obtained using a wild cluster bootstrap. Results: Among 5991 respondents, the Florida-versus-control increase in poor physical health days among cancer survivors alone was imprecisely estimated (difference-in-differences, 4.97 days; 95% CI, -0.59 to 10.52; bootstrap p = 0.137). In the survey-weighted analysis, implementation of SB 1718 was associated with a differential increase of 7.09 physically unhealthy days per month among cancer survivors relative to adults without cancer (triple difference, 95% CI, 3.63-10.54). However, this estimate was substantially attenuated and no longer statistically significant in the unweighted analysis (1.34 days; 95% CI, -0.19 to 2.87). The estimate also varied when the largest survey weights were excluded or winsorized and was based on small Florida cancer-survivor samples. No robust differential association was identified for mentally unhealthy days. Conclusion: Although the survey-weighted analysis suggested an increase in physically unhealthy days among cancer survivors following implementation of Florida SB 1718, the magnitude and statistical significance of this estimate were not robust to the weighting specification. Small Florida cancer-survivor samples, unequal survey weights, and limited compositional comparability between Florida and the control states preclude a definitive conclusion regarding the policy's association with self-reported health.
