Time Trends in Mortality from Cardiovascular Diseases: An Ecological Study of Brazil's Regions and States, 2010-2023.
Article in Arquivos brasileiros de cardiologia, 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
backgroundDeath from cardiovascular diseases (CVD) represents an essential marker for evaluating the progress and limitations of public policies, especially in territories with greater vulnerability.
objectiveTo analyze mortality from CVD, hypertensive diseases (HD), ischemic heart disease (IHD), and cerebrovascular diseases (CEVD) by sex, in Brazil, its regions, and Federative Units, between 2010 and 2023.
methodsTime series study with mortality data obtained from DATASUS. Rates were standardized by age, and the temporal trend was assessed using the Joinpoint regression model, with the calculation of annual percent change (APC) and the Average Annual Percentage Change (AAPC) for the entire period. A 95% confidence interval and a significance level of 5% were considered.
resultsBetween 2010 and 2023, there were 4,991,937 deaths from CVD in Brazil (52.50% in men). Mortality from CVD decreased in men (Federal District: -3.58%, p<0.001; South: -2.23%, p<0.001), but increased in Amazonas (1.04%, p<0.01) and Amapá (1.54%, p<0.01). IHD increased in men in Amapá (5.21%, p<0.001) and Roraima (2.61%, p=0.03). HD increased in Bahia (men: 1.38%, p=0.03; women: 1.50%, p=0.04) and Rio Grande do Sul (men: 1.93%, p<0.001; women: 1.86%, p<0.01). CEVD mortality shows a downward trend in most states. Premature mortality from HD increased among men in the South (+1.61%, p<0.001).
conclusionIn Brazil, despite advances in the prevention and treatment of CVD, improvements have not been equitable: strong regional and socioeconomic inequalities persist, with higher mortality rates among vulnerable populations.
