Robust trend estimation for COVID-19 in Brazil.
Article in Spatial and spatio-temporal epidemiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Estimating patterns of occurrence of cases and deaths related to the COVID-19 pandemic is a complex problem. The incidence of cases presents a great spatial and temporal heterogeneity, and the mechanisms of accounting for occurrences adopted by health departments induce a process of measurement error that alters the dependence structure of the process. In this work we propose methods to estimate the trend in the cases of COVID-19, controlling for the presence of measurement error. This decomposition is presented in Bayesian time series and spatio-temporal models for counting processes with latent components, and compared to the empirical analysis based on moving averages. We applied time series decompositions for the total number of deaths in Brazil and for the states of São Paulo and Amazonas, and a spatio-temporal analysis for all occurrences of deaths at the state level in Brazil, using two alternative specifications with global and regional components.
