Article in Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02282293 (Reducing the Burden of Malaria in HIV-Infected Pregnant Women and Their HIV-Exposed Children), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 papers.

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.

Abstract

The HIV protease inhibitor lopinavir inhibits Plasmodium falciparum aspartic proteases (plasmepsins) and parasite development, and children receiving lopinavir-ritonavir experienced fewer episodes of malaria than those receiving other antiretroviral regimens. Resistance to lopinavir was selected in vitro over ∼9 months, with ∼4-fold decreased sensitivity. Whole-genome sequencing of resistant parasites showed a mutation and increased copy number in pfmdr1 and a mutation in a protein of unknown function, but no polymorphisms in plasmepsin genes.
