Article in Scientific data, 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
This article describes a dataset of legislators in Latin America. It is a large data collection effort containing data on all elected legislators in the 18 Latin American countries with competitive elections since 1978 or transition to democracy up until 2023. The Latin American Legislators Dataset includes data both on unicameral legislatures as well as on the lower and upper chambers in bicameral legislatures and currently comprises 31,724 observations of 21,807 unique legislators in 259 elections. The dataset is an important resource for the study of legislative elites because it comprises information on various legislator attributes (esp. gender, elite turnover, seniority and inter-chamber switching).
