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

objectiveRapid diagnostic techniques that do not depend on microscopic analysis are urgently needed for rapid diagnosis and management of bilharziasis. Specific ligands that are excreted through urine in bilharziasis may serve as rapid diagnostic biomarkers to replace microscopy, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. The aim of this study was to identify ligands associated with bilharziasis.

methodsMicroscopy was employed to detect ova of

resultsGC-MS revealed that the level of indole in bilharziasis sample was higher than that in normal urine. Indole was the ligand with the highest (28.63%) concentration in the pooled positive urine sample, while ethyl phenazone level was the highest (69.64%) in the pooled normal sample. Computational analysis depicted perfect docking with indole and all other ligands identified in positive urine samples.

conclusionThis study identified some ligands associated with bilharziasis some unique to normal (negative) urine samples.
