From data to action: addressing geographic inequalities in rabies burden through targeted policies.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Rabies remains a preventable yet fatal zoonotic disease, disproportionately affecting low- and middle-income settings. Despite global progress in prevention and control, the extent of geographic, socioeconomic, and age-related disparities in rabies burden has not been fully quantified. Methods: Using data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) Study 2021, we evaluated global, regional, national, and sociodemographic index (SDI)-specific patterns in rabies burden, focusing on age-standardized rate (ASR), including age-standardized incidence (ASIR), prevalence (ASPR), mortality (ASMR), and disability-adjusted life-year rates (ASDR). Temporal trends were quantified using the average annual percentage change (AAPC). Health inequalities were examined using the slope index of inequality (SII) and concentration index (CCI), while frontier analysis was conducted to estimate potential gains relative to socioeconomic development. Results: In 2021, the global ASIR of rabies was 0.129 per 100,000 population [95% uncertainty interval ( Conclusion: Global rabies elimination requires comprehensive efforts to reduce disparities both between and within countries, primarily by expanding access to post-exposure prophylaxis, increasing dog vaccination coverage and addressing socioeconomic inequalities.
