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

Objectives: Urban residential characteristics, including racial and ethnic composition, may be associated with cardiometabolic health. We synthesized the literature on neighborhood co-ethnic exposure and cardiometabolic outcomes among racial and ethnic minoritized populations. Methods: We searched PubMed and Web of Science for studies published through October 2023 examining ethnic density or segregation and cardiometabolic conditions (adiposity, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes). Study quality was assessed using the U.S. National Institutes of Health's Quality Assessment Tool. Results: Forty-five articles representing 34 unique studies were included. Over half relied on self-reported outcomes, and nine were longitudinal. The most common exposure measure was percentage of census tract residents sharing participant's racial/ethnic classification. Over 40% of studies including Black and Hispanic/Latine populations reported an association of greater co-ethnic exposure with poorer cardiometabolic outcomes, compared with 7% of studies including Asian populations. Across all three groups, 25%-40% of studies reported inverse associations. Conclusion: Associations between neighborhood co-ethnic exposure and cardiometabolic outcomes vary both across and within racial/ethnic groups, reflecting interactions among structural (dis)advantage, community stressors, and neighborhood resources. Future research should integrate theoretical frameworks and sociohistorical context.
