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

backgroundBrazil presents regional variations in mortality from cardiomyopathies, influenced by demographic characteristics, socioeconomic inequalities, and differences in access to health services. Between 2001 and 2021, 272,448 deaths from the disease were recorded in the country.

objectiveTo analyze, at the national level, the epidemiological profile and the spatiotemporal distribution of mortality from cardiomyopathies in Brazil, from 2001 to 2021.

methodsEpidemiological study based on secondary data from the Mortality Information System (SIM/DATASUS) and population estimates from IBGE. Crude mortality rates were calculated per municipality. Temporal analysis was performed using Joinpoint, estimating the annual percentage change (APC). Spatial analysis used GeoDa, with Bayesian smoothing and evaluation of spatial autocorrelation using the Global Moran's I and LISA indices. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05.

resultsThere were 272,448 deaths due to cardiomyopathies, predominantly in men (58.65%), individuals aged 80 or older (25.74%), white individuals (52.18%), married individuals (36.77%), and those with 1 to 3 years of completed schooling (21.91%). The average mortality rate was 6.66 per 100,000 inhabitants, reaching 7.64 per 100,000 in 2004 and falling to 4.15 per 100,000 in 2020. A significant annual reduction of 1.86% was observed (p < 0.05). Spatial analysis revealed clusters of high mortality, mainly in the Midwest, South, and Southeast regions, with Corumbá de Goiás standing out (49.34/100,000).

conclusionThere was a significant reduction in mortality from cardiomyopathies, despite the persistence of critical areas that require targeted strategies for surveillance, early diagnosis, and appropriate management.
