Burns in the Brazilian Unified Health System: a review of hospitalization from 2008 to 2017.
Article in International journal of burns and trauma, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundBurns are a public health problem, especially in vulnerable populations. The costs of treatment remain poorly studied in developing countries. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of burn admissions in the Brazilian public health care system between 2008 and 2017.
methodsThis study used publicly available data from hospital information and mortality systems. We investigated information as sex, age, length of stay, admission costs (reimbursement), and mortality.
resultsThere were 170,554 admissions and most patients were male. Annual admission rates were between 1.32 and 1.87 for children aged ≤ nine years and between 0.58 and 0.71 for adults aged ≥ 60 years, per 10,000 population. Overall cost was US $158,332,891.11 (R$614,537,450.29). In-hospital mortality was 3.56%.
conclusionAdmissions showed a downward trend, while mortality remained stable and demanded substantial resources.
