The dramaturgy of a health emergency: women's lived experiences of the zika epidemic in Brazil.
Article in Ciencia & saude coletiva, 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
The official calendar of a health emergency has a direct impact on affected populations, particularly at the times of beginning, peak, end, and after the end. According to the World Health Organization, the zika virus epidemic was a public health emergency between February and November 2016. The disease is now classified as an endemic arbovirus in several countries in the Global South. In this article, we analyze the chronology of the epidemic for three women affected by zika in Alagoas, Brazil, who became pregnant at the beginning of the health emergency and whose children died between two and four years after the end of the epidemic. Our focus on the lived experience of these three women complexifies the linear dramaturgy of time in health emergencies. We aim to demonstrate how the health emergency calendar is an artifact that shapes political subjectivities, but also how it simplifies the lived experience of affected women, particularly in the times after the end.
