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

Background: Designing, implementing, and upscaling effective malaria vector control strategies necessitates understanding of when and where transmission occurs. This study assessed the biting patterns of potentially infectious malaria vectors at various hours, locations, and human behavior in different ecological settings in western Kenya. Methods: Hourly indoor and outdoor catches of human-biting mosquitoes were sampled from 1900 to 0700 hours for four consecutive nights in four houses per village using human landing collection method. The nocturnal biting activities of each Results: Altogether, a total of 2,037 adult female Anophelines were collected comprising of A Conclusion: The study shows heterogeneity of Anophelines distribution, high outdoor malaria transmission, and peak biting activity by
