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

Development of new medicines for malaria is a challenging and important topic of applied research because malarial parasites rapidly adapt to man-made interventions. Best studied examples are widely used drugs such as chloroquine, sulfadoxin-pyrimethamine (SP), and, recently, artemisinins; all of them can lose efficacy after large-scale introduction. In addition to drugs, malaria vaccines re-emerged on the agenda of funding bodies and research institutions after a period of quietness and desperation. This time the communities' aims are high: a registered and effective malaria-vaccine. So far, only one candidate shows modest efficacy, a quantum leap in malaria vaccine research, whereas others have not met the high expectations. In this overview, I will summarize basic thoughts and principles behind our work and illustrate them with examples of current projects of my group.
