The 21st-century adolescent mothers' profile and adolescent pregnancy reduction in Brazil.
Article in Revista da Associacao Medica Brasileira (1992), 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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the changes in the sociodemographic profile and maternal healthcare associated with adolescent deliveries in Brazil in 2000, 2011, and 2022.
methodCross-sectional study by search on the Live Births Data System. Analyzed variables from mothers aged 10-19 years in Brazil: age, education, ethnicity, marital status, prenatal consultations, mode of delivery, and the country's region.
resultsIn 2000, there were 750,537 adolescents' live births to adolescents in Brazil, and in 2022, there were 315,606 (58% reduction). There was a decrease in the number of married adolescent mothers, from 48 to 29.7% in 2011 and 25.5% in 2022. Regarding ethnicity, 231,369 (75%) pregnant adolescents in 2022 were Black and Brown, compared with 47.4% in 2000; the Indigenous adolescent deliveries have tripled (from 0.8 to 2.4%), with 7,526 births in 2022. Education improved substantially (30.3% in 2000 to 53.0% in 2011 and 80.6% in 2022) with at least 8 years of study. Adolescents with no prenatal care decreased from 6% in 2000 to 2% in 2022. There was an increase in cesarean births from 26.4 to 41.5%. Regionally, the age-specific fertility rate from 15 to 19 years in 2000 was higher in the North (111.7/1,000) and lower in the Southeast (71.4/1,000), in 2022, there was a decrease to 61.7/1,000 and 29.1/1,000, respectively.
conclusionThere was a decrease in the number of married adolescent mothers and an increase in the education level of adolescent mothers. However, the rise in cesarean births and racial disparities, with Black and Brown adolescents comprising ¾ of pregnancies in 2022, highlights ongoing challenges for health policies.
