Profile of Mortality Due to All Causes and Patterns of Diseases of the Circulatory System in Childhood Between 2019 and 2022 in Brazil.
Article in Arquivos brasileiros de cardiologia, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundBetween 2020 and 2023, the COVID-19 pandemic had a direct impact on population health. In Brazil, there is a lack of studies on the correlation between mortality from diseases of the circulatory system (DCS) and cardiorespiratory arrest (CRA) among people younger than 20 years during this period.
objectiveTo analyze, using DCS and CRA, the mortality rates (MRs) due to underlying causes of death among people younger than 20 years in Brazil from 2019 to 2022 to understand the impact of the pandemic.
methodsEcological time-series study conducted between 2019 and 2022, focusing on deaths among people younger than 20 years. The analysis included the MRs and proportional mortality (PM) by cause of death, with data obtained from the DATASUS. Stata and Excel were used for statistical analysis.
resultsBetween 2019 and 2022, there were 243,358 deaths among people younger than 20 years, with an MR of 101.7 per 100,000 inhabitants, which was higher among children younger than 1 year. The main causes of death were perinatal, external, and congenital malformations. There was a 9% reduction in MR between 2019 and 2020, followed by a 4.08% increase between 2021 and 2022, along with a 10% decrease in the number of live births. The highest MRs were in the North and Northeast regions. The MRs by DCS decreased between 2019 and 2021 but increased in 2022. Reporting of CRA as the cause of death was infrequent.
conclusionThere was a reduction in MRs due to all causes and an increase in DCS in people older than 15 years during the pandemic, with disparities in lower-income regions.
