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

Objectives: Understanding the factors that contribute to dengue deaths is crucial for developing effective interventions and improving public health strategies. This study aims to determine the dengue mortality rate in Malaysia from 2012 to 2021. Methods: All dengue-related death data were obtained from the Department of Statistics Malaysia and were examined from 2012 to 2021. Results: A total of 1641 dengue-related deaths were identified. The average annual crude mortality rate was 0.5 deaths per 100,000 population, with the highest rate in 2015 at 1.1 deaths per 100,000 population. The central and southern regions had the highest age-adjusted mortality rates. Older age groups had higher mortality rates than younger individuals. Conclusions: Dengue remains a significant public health challenge in Malaysia. It is essential to prioritize older individuals and urban areas in addressing this issue.
