Epidemiological surveillance in congenital anomalies and rare diseases in Brazil: present situation and future challenges.
Review in Journal of community genetics, 2025. 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
Brazil is a middle-income country with approximately 210 million inhabitants, with around 2,900,000 births annually. Besides its extensive territorial area, the country is characterized by huge heterogeneity in many aspects, notably in socioeconomic status, education, access to healthcare, geographic mobility, different biomes, agricultural practices and diverse ethnic ancestry. These characteristics directly impact the frequency and distribution of genetic disorders and Congenital Anomalies (CA), which are the second leading cause of death in the first year of life. In this review, we will present the main initiatives and available information from governmental organs and scientific research in Brazil regarding the epidemiology of congenital anomalies and rare diseases, emphasizing teratogenic risk factors and population medical genetics aspects.
