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

Plasmodium falciparum expresses variant surface antigens on the surface of mature infected erythrocytes (IEs) for binding to various receptors on host cells (cytoadhesion) to evade host immunity. This enables IEs to sequester in the microvasculature of different organs and tissues of the host, contributing to different outcomes of disease. The in vitro study of cytoadhesion involves the use of IEs and human endothelial cells or other cell lines that express host cell receptors. To enrich for IE populations that bind to certain cell types or receptors, we describe a method for panning mature pigmented trophozoite IEs on cell lines. The method enables coculturing of IEs with cells of interest and the selection of IEs that cytoadhere for continuous culturing. The method serves as a tool for generating IEs with specific cell or cell receptor adhesion phenotypes to allow detailed studies of cytoadhesion interactions.
