Association study of Plasmodium falciparum Acetyl-CoA Synthetase Mutations S868G and V949I with antimalarial drugs.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Plasmodium falciparum acetyl-CoA synthetase (PfACAS) protein is an important source of acetyl-CoA. We detected the mutations S868G and V949I in PfACAS by whole-genome sequencing analysis in some recrudescent parasites after antimalarial treatment with artesunate and dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine, suggesting that they may confer drug resistance. Using CRISPR/Cas9 technology, we engineered parasite lines carrying the PfACAS S868G and V949I mutations in two genetic backgrounds and evaluated their susceptibility to antimalarial drugs in vitro. The results demonstrated that PfACAS S868G and V949I mutations alone or in combination were not enough to provide resistance to antimalarial drugs.
