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

In recent decades, countries of origin have increasingly sought to develop policies to engage with their scientific diaspora. These policy designs typically vary across models of repatriation, linkage, and circulation, aiming to strengthen national science, technology and innovation (STI) systems. This article analyses the design and early implementation of the Knowledge Brazil Program to identify the strategies prioritized by the Brazilian state in engaging with its scientific diaspora. The study is based on document analysis, program microdata, and media sources, including news reports and opinion articles from widely circulated outlets. The findings are synthesized through a SWOT analysis, identifying strengths in the program's design, which incorporates the three core components of diaspora engagement-repatriation, linkage, and circulation; weaknesses in the asymmetry between the program's axes, with a clear emphasis on repatriation; opportunities in the diaspora's willingness to contribute to the national STI system; and threats related to concerns regarding the absorption of researchers into academia after the program's completion.
