[Epidemiology of acquired syphilis in youth populations in health regions of the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area (2014–2023)]
Observational study in Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Medicas (Cordoba, Argentina), 2026. 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
objetivesTo analyze the trends of acquired syphilis among youth in Buenos Aires Province from 2014 to 2023, focusing on health regions within the metropolitan area and identifying territorial and gender disparities in notification rates.
methodsAn observational and ecological study was conducted using data from the National Health Surveillance System. Age- and sex-specific notification rates were calculated for the 15–24 and 25–34 age groups, disaggregated by health region.
resultsA sustained increase in syphilis notification rates was observed until 2019, followed by a sharp decline in 2020 associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, and a partial recovery in the subsequent years. Territorial, age group, and gender disparities were identified in notification levels, along with potential difficulties in diagnostic access among young people.
conclusionsFindings highlight the need to strengthen primary healthcare, enhance local surveillance systems, and implement gender-sensitive and territorially focused interventions to address the structural inequities affecting youth sexual health.
