Article in Research in health and medicine, 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: Hispanic older adults represent a rapidly growing demographic in the United States and may be disproportionately affected by cognitive impairment and depression. This study aimed to examine ethnic differences in the prevalence of cognitive impairment and depression among low-income Hispanic and non-Hispanic White older adults, and to explore the relationship between cognitive impairment and depressive symptoms within these groups. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 157 older adults (age = 76.3 ± 6.7 years, female = 133), recruited from independent living facilities and low-income community centers in Central Florida. The sample consisted of Hispanic (n = 91) and non-Hispanic White (n = 66) older adults. Cognitive impairment was assessed using the Memory Impairment Screen, and depression was measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). Chi-square tests and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to analyze group differences. Results: A significant difference in cognitive impairment prevalence was found between ethnic groups (χ Conclusions: Cognitive impairment is more prevalent among low-income Hispanic older adults compared to their non-Hispanic White counterparts. These findings emphasize the need for culturally tailored interventions to improve cognitive health care access for older adults.
