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

purpose of reviewTo examine the relationship between health-related social needs, specifically food insecurity, housing instability, and transportation barriers, interventions to address those needs, and cardiovascular health outcomes. RECENT

findingsFood insecurity and housing instability are associated with many adverse cardiovascular disease outcomes, including greater prevalence and incidence, worse disease management, and greater risk of complications. Transportation barriers are plausibly linked to worse outcomes, but relatively understudied. Food is medicine interventions, which address food insecurity and help overcome barriers to healthy eating, have shown important benefits for blood pressure and heart failure in large-scale randomized clinical trials. Few interventions have evaluated the impacts on cardiovascular outcomes of addressing housing instability or transportation barriers. Health-related social needs clearly contribute to worse cardiovascular health. Several recent trials show promising benefits from addressing food insecurity. There is not yet enough evidence to draw conclusions about the cardiovascular health impacts of addressing housing instability and transportation barriers.
