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

This virtual collection is a celebration. It is a celebration of crystallography in Africa, and a celebration of the international crystallography community. It commemorates the founding of the African Crystallographic Association (AfCA), which was accepted as the newest Regional Associate of the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr) in 2023, the year of the 75th anniversary of the first IUCr Congress and General Assembly. The collection contains research articles authored by scientists across the African continent, as well as a selection of articles giving context to crystallography in Africa. These discuss history, collaboration between scientists and between associations, and various educational and outreach initiatives.
