Patient-Reported Social Determinants of Health in Patients With Heart Failure.
Observational study in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04637776 (Psychosocial Syndemics and Multimorbidity in Patients With Heart Failure - R01 HL151431), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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

Abstract
backgroundSocial determinants of health (SDOH) complicate medical care and affect clinical outcomes, but the lack of a reliable structured interview for medical patients has impeded clinical assessment and research on SDOH. We assessed the reliability and validity of a newly developed SDOH Patient Interview Form and investigated SDOH in patients with heart failure.
methodsThe SDOH Patient Interview Form was administered to recently hospitalized patients with heart failure between January 2021 and April 2024. The interviews were recorded, and 50 were randomly selected for the interrater reliability analysis.
resultsThe sample included 367 participants (mean age, 61.2±12.1 years; 42.5% women; 57.7% minorities). The interrater reliability of SDOH Patient Interview Form categories (eg, Legal and Social Problems) was 100%. The κ reliability coefficients for individual items were ≥0.94. Higher lifetime SDOH counts were associated with lower age and income and higher New York Heart Association class and body mass index. Two distinct sets of problems were found to contribute to relatively high burdens of SDOH. The first originates with abuse in childhood and presents as severe socioeconomic deprivation in adulthood. The second includes losses of family members and occupational, financial, and caregiver stress along with difficulty affording medical care.
conclusionsThe SDOH Patient Interview Form is a reliable instrument for assessing patient-reported SDOH in patients with heart failure. It is suitable for use in research and clinical contexts but requires further testing in other medical patient populations. This study revealed 2 distinct patterns of stressful problems that can contribute to a high overall burden of SDOH. REGISTRATION: URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier: NCT04637776.
