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

backgroundChild mortality is one of the major health indices and the main targets in sustainable development goals. This study aimed to estimate child mortality rate and assess the progress toward sustainable development goals in Hamadan Province, western Iran and its districts from 1990 to 2016. STUDY

designA cross-sectional study.

methodsWe used two data sources including death registration system (DRS) and summary birth history data (SBH) of 2010 census for estimating child mortality rate. SBH data was analyzed by Maternal Age Cohort and Maternal age period methods. To obtain the final trend with 95% uncertainty, we used Bayesian Penalized B-Spline.

resultsAt provincial level, child mortality rate reduced by 82% from 1990 (97 per 1000 live births) to 2016 (16 per 1000 live births). At district level, in 2016, the highest child mortality rate belonged to Toyserkan and Kaboodarahang districts with 18 per 1000 live births, and the lowest child mortality rate belonged to Hamadan and Razan districts with 12 per 1000 live births. The highest and the lowest reduction rate from 1990 to 2016 belonged to Razan and Kaboodarahang districts, respectively.

conclusionsThe rate of child mortality has declined massively at both provincial and district levels. However, disparity existed among districts of Hamadan Province. The level of maternal education and income level was associated with disparity.
