Assessing mosquito dynamics and dengue transmission in Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil through an enhanced temperature-dependent mathematical model.
Article in PloS one, 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
Dengue fever remains a major public health concern, requiring continuous efforts to mitigate its impact. This study investigates the influence of key temperature-dependent parameters on dengue transmission dynamics in Foz do Iguaçu, a tri-border municipality in southern Brazil, using a mathematical model based on a system of ordinary differential equations. The fitted model aligns well with observed data. To track changes in dengue transmission over time and detect epidemic onset, we calculated the effective reproduction number. Additionally, we explored the potential effects of climate variability on dengue dynamics. Our findings highlight the importance of vector population dynamics, climate, and incidence, offering insights into dengue transmission in Foz do Iguaçu. This research provides a foundation for optimizing intervention strategies in other cities, improving outbreak prediction, and supporting public health efforts in dengue control.
