City classification and health burden: Evidence from U5 malaria in the rapidly growing city of Akure, Nigeria.
Article in IJID regions, 2025. 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
Objectives: Little is known about the complex interplay between urban structure and health in rapidly urbanizing cities in Nigeria. Methods: The study broadly used very high-resolution satellite imagery and gathered primary data. With the aid of the very high-resolution imagery and identified neighborhoods, two neighborhoods each were sampled based on their classified urban structure characteristics. The obtained malaria epidemiologic data were aggregated according to stratified neighborhoods. Analysis of variance was used to determine the mean difference of malaria burden between the spatial structure. Results: The study shows that under 5 malaria varies significantly among the settlement classes ( Conclusions: The study findings underscore the urgent need for comprehensive urban development policies to address health inequities by prioritizing physical infrastructure improvements in marginalized areas. Such improvements will translate to enhanced health equity for rapidly growing informal, poor, and deprived settlement areas and ultimately promote sustainable urban development efforts.
