[High-risk clusters and temporal trends in congenital syphilis infection in Brazil].
Article in Revista panamericana de salud publica = Pan American journal of public health, 2020. 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 occurrence of high-risk clusters for congenital syphilis (CS) in Brazil and describe the temporal trends in the CS infection in the country, comparing children whose mothers received vs. those whose mothers did not receive prenatal care.
methodThis ecological study used data from the National Disease Notification System (
resultsClusters with detection rates of 41.3, 44.4 and 188.1 CS cases/10 000 live births were identified in 2001, 2009 and 2017 respectively. In 2001, the rates were 8 times higher in the clusters than in the remaining country; in 2009, the rates were 3.3 times higher; and in 2017, 2.5 times higher. An increasing trend in CS infection was detected in all regions and federation units. The rates were 8.53 times higher in the children of mothers without prenatal care (243.3 cases/1 000 live births vs. 28.3 cases/1 000 live births in the children of mothers with prenatal care).
conclusionsThe identification of municipality clusters at high risk for CS and of increasing trends in CS infection across the country, even in the presence of prenatal care, suggests the need for improvement of public health actions to fight this disease.
