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

We have evaluated in in vitro conditions the possible cooperative effect of antimalarial antibodies with several human blood cell types. When used alone, immunoglobulin G from African adults who had reached a state of premunition against malaria was found to have no or very limited direct effect on invasion and multiplication of P. falciparum asexual blood stages. In contrast, these antibodies induced a marked specific inhibition of parasite growth in the presence of normal blood monocytes, and the inhibition did not appear to be strain dependent. No similar antibody-dependent cellular inhibitory effect was found using human blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes, lymphocytes, platelets, or adherent spleen cells. However, these cells could all exert in vitro some non-antibody-dependent inhibitory effect when present at high effector/target cell ratios.
