Neighborhood disadvantage and cardiovascular health in early adolescents in the United States.
Article in American journal of preventive cardiology, 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
Introduction: Adolescence is a critical period during which exposures to cardiovascular disease risk factors and related pathophysiologic changes begin. Yet neighborhood-level factors shaping cardiovascular health from adolescence onward remain understudied. The American Heart Association's Life's Essential 8 (LE8) is a composite cardiovascular health score, encompassing diet, physical activity, body mass index, blood pressure, and other factors. Area Deprivation Index (ADI), Social Vulnerability Index (SVI), and Childhood Opportunity Index (COI) estimate neighborhood disadvantage. This study examines associations between neighborhood disadvantage and LE8 cardiovascular risk factors in early adolescents. Methods: We analyzed data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study, including 8,160 early adolescents with behavioral subcomponent scores and 1,125 with overall LE8 and health factors subcomponent scores. Neighborhood disadvantage indices (ADI, SVI, COI) were derived from geospatial data. Multivariable linear regression models assessed associations between ADI, SVI, and COI at baseline (2016-2018) and LE8 scores at Year 2 (2018-2020) and Year 3 (2019-2021), adjusted for age, sex, and race/ethnicity. Results: Higher neighborhood disadvantage was associated with lower (less healthy) LE8 cardiovascular health scores in early adolescents, driven mainly by behavioral factors. Overall LE8 scores were 9.45 points lower for the most deprived ADI quintile (95% CI: -11.86, -7.05; p<0.001), 6.95 points lower for the most vulnerable SVI quintile (95% CI: -9.09, -4.82; p<0.001), and 8.45 points lower for the lowest opportunity COI quintile (95% CI: -10.77, -6.12; p<0.001). Conclusion: Higher neighborhood deprivation was associated with poorer LE8 cardiovascular health scores in early adolescence.
