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
Background: With the problems of increasing levels of drug resistance and difficulties to afford and access effective antimalarial drugs in poor and remote areas, herbal medicines could be an important and sustainable source of treatment. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in two selected districts in Jimma Zone, southwest Ethiopia. In total, 552 participants from 17 kebeles (villages/communities) and 18 traditional healers of the districts were interviewed. Data collection was conducted from April 27 to May 18, 2020 using pre-tested structured questionnaires. The data were analyzed using Epi Info 7.0 and the descriptive statistics were used to summarize the results. Results: The study indicated that AM is available, known by 39.8% of the respondents and used for prevention and treatment of malaria by 5.7% of the population. All traditional healers interviewed knew the plant, and 44.4% use it for treatment of malaria. In addition, AM is especially used to treat malaria, amoebiasis, diarrhea, cough, and tuberculosis. Conclusion: The availability and use of AM to treat malaria was verified in both community and traditional healers. AM, which was found effective as antimalarial plant in high
