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

Heretofore, transgenesis in the parasitic nematode genus Strongyloides has relied on microinjecting transgene constructs into gonadal syncytia of free-living females. We now report transgenesis in Strongyloides stercoralis by microinjecting constructs into the syncytial testes of free-living males. Crosses of individual males microinjected with a construct encoding GFP with cohorts of 12 non-injected females produced a mean of 7.28±2.09 transgenic progeny. Progeny of males and females microinjected with distinct reporter constructs comprised 2.6%±0.7% of individuals expressing both paternal and maternal transgenes. Implications of this finding for deployment of CRISPR/Cas9 mutagenesis in Strongyloides spp. are discussed.
