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
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the leading causes of dementia in older adults and is associated with a significant increase in the number of deaths globally. Objective: This study analyzed mortality from AD in the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil, between 2013 and 2022. Methods: This ecological time series study used data from the Mortality Information System and the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, identifying deaths per the International Classification of Diseases 10 Results: A total of 6,083 deaths from AD were identified during the study period. We observed a progressive increase in the absolute number of deaths, up from 375 in 2013 to 802 in 2022, as well as in the mortality rate, which rose from 9.77 to 21.02 per 100 thousand inhabitants. We identified a statistically significant upward trend (p<0.001), with a mean annual increase of 49.68 deaths (β Conclusion: The study showed a significant increase in mortality from AD in Espírito Santo over the years, reinforcing the importance of preventive strategies aimed at health care and healthy aging.
