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

Dengue fever has been spreading rapidly worldwide, with a notably high prevalence in South American countries such as Brazil. Its transmission dynamics are governed by the vector population dynamics and the interactions among humans, vectors, and pathogens, which are further shaped by environmental factors. Calculating these environmental indicators is challenging due to the limited spatial coverage of weather station observations and the time-consuming processes involved in downloading and processing local data, such as satellite imagery. This issue is exacerbated in large-scale studies, making it difficult to develop comprehensive and publicly accessible datasets of disease-influencing factors. Addressing this challenge necessitates the efficient data integration methods and the assembly of multi-factorial datasets to aid public health authorities in understanding dengue transmission mechanisms and improving risk prediction models. In response, we developed a population-weighted dataset of 12 dengue risk factors, covering 558 microregions in Brazil over 1252 epidemiological weeks from 2001 to 2024. This dataset and the associated methodology streamline data processing for researchers and can be adapted for other vector-borne disease studies.
