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

Background and Aims: Climate variability worsens waterborne diseases like diarrhea, especially in developing countries. This study investigated the link between climate factors and a diarrheal upsurge in Dhaka during May-June 2024. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the International Center for Diarrheal Disease Research, Bangladesh (icddr,b). We considered samples from patients and climate data from May 1st to June 30th, 2024, for comprehensive analysis and comparison. We used data from icddr,b Dhaka hospital's 2% surveillance system and climate data from national aeronautics and space administration (NASA) for the same period of Dhaka city. All analyzes were conducted using R statistical software (R-4.3.2) and a Results: A total of 737 patients were enrolled during May-June, with 137 cases recorded during the upsurge period from 2% of the surveillance. The most detected pathogens (10% were both Conclusion: This study highlights how climate factors influence diarrheal disease in Dhaka and urges policymakers to prioritize climate resilience and targeted interventions.
