No expertise whatsoever in le médical... but EN "signal" for FR signal is surely a faux ami here. I'd have thought "does not flag up/bring to light/etc. any **indicator** of, what? disproportionality? disproportionate cause and effect maybe..."

@ Liz Thank you. I had already found:
The term “disproportionality” refers to the ratio between the percentage of persons in a particular racial or ethnic group at a particular decision point or experiencing an event (maltreatment, incarceration, school dropouts) compared to the percentage of the same racial or ethnic group in the overall population.

All the refs concern social work etc.

Thank you.
Thank you, I like the last word. You have finally got round to "disparity" which is where I started. I`ll have a coffee and mull over the difference, if there is one.
