Malaria Microscopy Competency in the Subnational Verification, China: Implications for Malaria Elimination and the Prevention of Malaria Reestablishment.
Article in The Canadian journal of infectious diseases & medical microbiology = Journal canadien des maladies infectieuses et de la microbiologie medicale, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Introduction: Qualified microscopy competency is a key indicator for certification of malaria elimination. To better prepare the country certification and identify the priorities that need improvement to prevent malaria reestablishment, microscopy competency at different levels were assessed in subnational verification of malaria elimination in China. Results: A total of 100 provincial-level representatives (60 from 42 CDCs/IPDs and 40 from 34 medical institutes) and 200 county-level representatives (61 from 41 CDCs and 139 from 118 medical institutes) were included. The qualitative accuracy was higher than 90% each ( Conclusions: In conclusion, competent microscopy in subnational verification supported the quality in eliminating malaria in China, while the accurate identification of malaria parasites, especially slides with low parasite density still need to be improved through continuous diagnostic platform construction, continuous technological innovation, and targeted training to prevent reestablishment of malaria transmission.
