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

Aspartic proteases play key roles in the biology of malaria parasites and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). We tested the activity of seven HIV-1 protease inhibitors against cultured Plasmodium falciparum. All compounds inhibited the development of parasites at pharmacologically relevant concentrations. The most potent compound, lopinavir, was active against parasites (50% inhibitory concentration [IC50], 0.9 to 2.1 microM) at concentrations well below those achieved by ritonavir-boosted lopinavir therapy. Lopinavir also inhibited the P. falciparum aspartic protease plasmepsin II at a similar concentration (IC50, 2.7 microM). These findings suggest that use of HIV-1 protease inhibitors may offer clinically relevant antimalarial activity.
