Article in Sao Paulo medical journal = Revista paulista de medicina, 2024. 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
backgroundEmotional distress increases, also affected by the setting.
objectiveTo estimate changes in prevalence of severe anxiety and depressive symptoms and associated factors. DESIGN AND
settingThis cross-sectional study included adults living in Manaus selected through a three-stage probability sampling in 2015 and 2019.
methodsThis is an analysis of two surveys conducted. The outcomes were assessed by Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item (≥ 15 points) and Patient Health Questionnaire 9-item (≥ 20), and changes were tested by chi-square goodness-of-fit. Prevalence ratios (PR) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were calculated by Poisson regression.
resultsSevere anxiety symptoms increased from 3.3% (95%CI = 2.7-3.9) in 2015 (n = 3,479) to 8.7% (95%CI = 7.5-9.8) in 2019 (n = 2,321); severe depressive symptoms changed from 2.5% (95%CI = 2.0-3.0) to 8.5% (95%CI = 7.3-9.6). Variations were more pronounced in social vulnerability (P < 0.05). Outcomes were higher in women (anxiety: PR = 1.27; 95%CI = 1.20-1.34, depression: PR = 1.35; 95%CI = 1.27-1.44), low-income individuals (anxiety: PR = 1.90; 95%CI = 1.20-3.00, depression: PR = 1.98; 95%CI = 1.22-3.19), less educated individuals (anxiety: PR = 2.20; 95%CI = 1.16-4.18, depression: PR = 2.37; 95%CI = 1.23-4.60), and individuals with poor health status (anxiety: PR = 9.06; 95%CI = 6.72-12.21, depression: PR = 8.99; 95%CI = 6.67-12.12).
conclusionSevere anxiety and depression tripled in Manaus, potentially reflecting Brazilian socioeconomic crises.
