Killing of blood-stage Plasmodium falciparum by lipid peroxides from tumor necrosis serum.
Article in Infection and immunity, 1988. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
The multiplication of Plasmodium falciparum in culture, as measured by [3H]hypoxanthine incorporation, was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner by rabbit tumor necrosis serum. The regimen by which tumor necrosis serum is produced caused significant increases in the levels of triglycerides and lipid peroxides, with the latter being indicated by the level of malondialdehyde in the serum. When tumor necrosis serum was depleted of lipoproteins by aerosil (fumed silica), no parasiticidal activity remained, and when it was separated by ultracentrifugation, more than 70% of the parasiticidal activity was found in the lipoprotein fraction. This suggests that lipid peroxides may account for most of the parasiticidal activity in tumor necrosis serum but that a nonlipid toxic factor may also be present.
