Growth and Genetic Manipulation of Entamoeba histolytica.
Article in Current protocols, 2022. 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
Entamoeba histolytica is a parasitic protozoan and the causative agent of amoebiasis in humans. Amoebiasis has a high incidence of disease, resulting in ∼67,900 deaths per year, and it poses a tremendous burden of morbidity and mortality in children. Despite its importance, E. histolytica is an understudied parasite. These protocols describe the in vitro growth, maintenance, cryopreservation, genetic manipulation, and cloning of axenic E. histolytica trophozoites. There has been significant progress in genetic manipulation of this organism over the past decade, and these protocols outline the ways in which these advances can be implemented. © 2022 Wiley Periodicals LLC.
