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
objectiveTo estimate the prevalence of abusive alcohol consumption, drinking and driving habits and reports of alcohol consumption comparing the first quarters of 2022 and 2023.
methodsA cross-sectional study, with data from the Telephone Survey of Risk Factors for Chronic Noncommunicable Diseases, 2022 and 2023. The study sample included 9 thousand people each year collected using random digit dialing and dialing methods direct distance (DDD) on mobile and fixed telephone lines. Self-reported variables for alcohol abuse, drinking and driving habits, and alcohol consumption were analyzed.
resultsThere was no significant change in the prevalence of alcohol abuse in the first quarters of 2022 and 2023. However, differences were observed in drinking and driving behavior, with a reduction in prevalence among those aged 18 to 24 years (9.6% (95%CI 4.4-19.8) to 2.2% (95%CI 1.4-3.6) and increased behavior among those with 12 or more years of education (from 6.9% (95%CI 5.5-8.7) to 11.9% (95%CI 10,3-13,6). Male individuals had a higher prevalence of alcohol consumption, alcohol abuse and drinking and driving habits in all analyzed breakdowns.
conclusionThe Brazilian policy to reduce the consumption of alcoholic beverages and the Sustainable Development Goals must be treated as a priority in Brazil.
