Secular trend in infant deaths by congenital malformations in Argentina (1980-2018).
Article in Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Medicas (Cordoba, Argentina), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Congenital malformations (CM) represent the second cause of infant death in Argentina. Objective: To analyze the secular trend (1980-2018) of infant deaths due to CM at the regional and provincial level. Material and methods: The data come from the DEIS (Ministry of Health) and include the absolute number of deaths and live births and deaths by CM coded according to ICD-10 (Codes Q00-Q99). Infant mortality rate due to CM (IMR-CM) (number of deaths due to congenital malformations / number of newborns) and the proportion of deaths from CM (PD-CM) (percentage of deaths from congenital malformations / deaths from all causes) were calculated by regions (Center, NOA, NEA, Cuyo and Patagonia) and provinces. The period was divided into 7 subgroups of five years and one of 4. Secular trend was analyzed using a Poisson model. A line and bar graph were used to represent graphically the differences in the IRM-CM and PD-CM at the regional level. Results: At the country level, there was a pattern characterized by the significant decrease and increase of the IMR-CM and PD-CM respectively. This pattern is repeated in the Central, Cuyo and Patagonia regions and in the provinces of Buenos Aires, Santa Fé, Entre Ríos, Neuquén, La Pampa, Mendoza and Santa Cruz. In the remaining regions and provinces, the IMR-CM exhibits a heterogeneous behavior. Conclusion: To analyze the secular trend (1980-2018) of infant deaths due to CM at the regional and provincial level.
