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 Aedes aegypti mosquito is the main vector of dengue and is a synanthropic insect and due to its anthropophilic nature, it has specific reproductive needs. In addition to that, it also needs tropical regions that provide climate-prone conditions that favor vector development. In this article, we propose the cross-correlation analysis between the climatic variables air temperature, relative humidity, weekly average precipitation and dengue cases in the period from 2017 to early 2021 in the municipality of Alagoinhas, Bahia, Brazil. To do so, we apply the trend-free cross-correlation, [Formula: see text], being a generalization of the fluctuation analysis without trend, where we calculate the cross correlation between time series to establish the influence of these variables on the occurrence of dengue disease. The results obtained here were a moderate correlation between relative humidity and the incidence of dengue cases, and a low correlation for relative air temperature and precipitation. However, the predominant factor in the incidence of dengue cases in the city of Alagoinhas is relative humidity and not air temperature and precipitation.
