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

Two genotypes, assemblages A and B, of the pathogenic gut protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia infect humans. Symptoms of infection range from asymptomatic to chronic diarrhea. Giardia chromosomes have long been characterized but not until the publication of the first Giardia genome sequence was chromosome mapping work, commenced nearly two decades ago, completed. Initial mapping studies identified and ordered Not I chromosome segments (summating to 1.8 Mb) of the estimated 2 Mb chromosome 3. The resulting map was confirmed with the release of the Giardia genome sequence and this revitalized mapping. The result is that 93% of the WB isolate genome sequence has now been assigned to one of five major chromosomes, and community access to these data has been made available through GiardiaDB, the database for Giardia genomes.
