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: Congenital syphilis remains a public health issue in Mexico. Timely screening during pregnancy is key to its prevention. Objective: To evaluate the implementation of the dual HIV/Syphilis rapid test in pregnant women at the General Zone Hospital with Family Medicine No. 2 and its feasibility to meet the national goal of performing three tests per pregnancy. Methods: A total of 8672 tests (2020 - 2024) were analyzed using MATLAB to identify trends by age, trimester, and test number. Linear regressions were applied, using the root mean square error as a measure of confidence, to project the fulfillment of the goal. Results: Most pregnant women (74%) underwent only one test, mainly in the first trimester. An increase in second and third tests was observed in 2024. Projections suggest the goal may be reached between 2029 and 2030. Conclusions: The dual HIV/Syphilis screening strategy at this hospital shows significant progress toward universal testing during pregnancy. The trend suggests comprehensive care for all pregnant women, contributing to the reduction of congenital syphilis and improved maternal-neonatal health. Strengthening early detection, follow-up, and sexual health education remains essential.
