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

Objective: The objective of this study was to develop an evidence map on the strategies for preventing and controlling Methods: The evidence map was created according to the methodology of the Latin American and Caribbean Center on Health Sciences Information (BIREME). Publication searches were performed in MEDLINE/PubMed and the Virtual Health Library, filtered for systematic reviews (SRs) only. The methodological quality of the SR was accessed using the AMSTAR2 tool, and Tableau software was used to construct the evidence map. Results: A total of 44 SRs on the prevention and control of Conclusion: The elaborated map highlighted strong evidence supporting the effectiveness of vaccination, DEET repellents, community participation, chemical control of the vector, and combined housing interventions in protecting against the vector and transmitted viruses. Nonetheless, several evidence gaps remain in the knowledge of how to best prevent and control the vector and its related viral infections, underscoring the need for high-quality SRs and primary studies.
