Parasite proteostasis and artemisinin resistance.
Article in Research square, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The continued emergence and spread of resistance to artemisinins, the cornerstone of first line antimalarials, threatens significant gains made toward malaria elimination. Mutations in Kelch13 have been proposed to mediate artemisinin resistance by either reducing artemisinin activation via reduced parasite hemoglobin digestion or by enhancing the parasite stress response. Here, we explored the involvement of the parasite unfolded protein response (UPR) and ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS), vital to maintaining parasite proteostasis, in the context of artemisinin resistance. Our data show that perturbing parasite proteostasis kills parasites, early parasite UPR signaling dictate DHA survival outcomes, and DHA susceptibility correlates with impairment of proteasome-mediated protein degradation. These data provide compelling evidence toward targeting the UPR and UPS to overcome existing artemisinin resistance.
