Electronic health record reveals community-level cardiometabolic health benefits associated with 10 years of community-based participatory research.
Article in Public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06907524 (Community-Based Preventative Cardiometabolic Screening and Health Coaching- A Prospective Study), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.

Abstract
backgroundWhile a major goal of community-based participatory research (CBPR) is to improve community health; it is unclear how to measure longstanding success of CBPR.
objectiveWe sought to determine the impact of ongoing CBPR on cardiometabolic health of participating communities, including in people not directly participating in research.
methodsWe used linear mixed-effects modelling with electronic medical records from 2002 to 2012 from the Yukon-Kuskokwim Health Corporation, which provides health care to all Alaska Native people in southwestern Alaska, to compare rates of change in cardiometabolic risk factors between communities that did and did not participate in ongoing CBPR beginning in 2003.
resultsWe analysed 1,262,035 medical records from 12,402 individuals from 10 study and 38 control communities. Blood pressure declined faster in study than in control communities: systolic blood pressure (0.04 mmHg/year; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.01, 0.08); diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (0.07 mmHg/year; 95% CI: 0.04, 0.09). Body mass index increased 0.04 units/year faster in study communities than in control communities (95% CI: 0.03, 0.05). More study visits were associated with faster reduction of DBP and triglyceride levels in study communities.
conclusionsOngoing CBPR may improve overall cardiometabolic health in communities, perhaps by increasing engagement in health and advocacy.
