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

The worldwide spread of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused the most severe public health crisis since the 1918 Spanish influenza pandemic. After the introduction of public health interventions aimed at reducing the number of COVID-19 cases, many countries across the world obtained success at containing the fast spread of SARS-CoV-2 during the first wave of the pandemic. However, the SARS-CoV-2 has resurged in many countries causing a even more devastating second wave. Brazil is one the most affected countries and currently is facing one of the worst public health crises in its history. Here, we discuss the unprecedented challenges faced by the Brazilian public health system in the midst of the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly regarding the collapse of the Brazilian health system and the emergence of new variants of concern (VOCs). Finally, we suggest some insights using a one health approach that will help the country to face and overcome the current COVID-19 crisis.
