SERPENT-Brasil: a technological tool for snakebite management.
Article in Revista panamericana de salud publica = Pan American journal of public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Objective: To report on the development and features of a mobile application (app) to guide the public and health professionals on pre-hospital emergency measures after snake envenomation. Methods: This was a four-stage methodological study conducted from June 2020 to July 2022. The app development included creating a mobile resource to guide pre-hospital care and to direct victims to hospitals that have antivenom. Results: The SERPENT-BRASIL app was developed for use on Android and IOS devices with an intuitive interface. It offers online and offline access to information on hospitals and mapping routes via Google Maps. In addition, it allows users to report snake sightings and to request emergency rescue. Conclusion: The SERPENT-BRASIL app improves snakebite management and prevention, eases the burden on health services, and promotes health education. Collection of snake envenomation data contributes to public safety, making the app an essential resource for public safety in Brazil.
