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

Parasitic helminths have a coexistence with mammalian hosts whereby they survive for several years in known hostile conditions of their hosts. Many explanations exist describing how these parasitic helminths are able to survive. In the last years, a lot of studies have focused on both enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant systems now shown to exist in these parasites and which may serve as defence tactics against the host-generated oxygen radicals. The relevance of antioxidant enzymes is confirmed by the fact that some of these molecules represent putative protective anti-parasite vaccines (i.e. in schistosomiasis). This review tries to compile what is known to date of the enzymatic antioxidant systems in selected parasitic helminths.
