A matter of life and death for Manitoba's children: an overview of birth rates and mortality rates.
Article in Canadian journal of public health = Revue canadienne de sante publique. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo determine the fertility and child mortality rates for Manitoba.
methodsFertility and mortality rates were derived from the Population Health Research Data Repository and Vital Statistics, for 1994 through 1998. Data are presented by 12 Regional Health Authorities (RHAs), 12 Winnipeg Community Areas (CAs) and by income quintile. Each indicator is correlated with PMR (the age- and sex-adjusted premature mortality rate, i.e., death before age 75) and SEFI (Socioeconomic Factor Index, a standardized composite index), both considered proxies for overall health and socioeconomic well-being of populations.
resultsManitoba's total fertility rate was 1.77 children per woman, ranging from 1.62 to 3.15 by RHA, and 1.21 to 2.30 by Winnipeg CA. Manitoba's infant mortality rate was 6.6/1000 (or 5.5/1000 excluding < 500 g or < 20 weeks gestation), ranging from 4.5 to 10.2 by RHA (4.2 to 9.8 exclusive), and 3.7 to 8.4 by Winnipeg CA (2.7 to 6.7). There was a gradient of infant mortality by income quintile (p < 0.001), with double the rate comparing lowest to highest. Child mortality rates varied geographically and by gender, with northern children at greatest risk. Injury was the leading cause of death (52% for ages 1 through 9, 75% for ages 15 to 19).
conclusionFertility rates, as well as infant and child mortality rates, were positively associated with PMR and SEFI, with substantial geographical variation.
