Relationship between red blood cell polymorphisms and effectiveness of seasonal malaria chemoprevention in 2020 in Dangassa, Mali.
Trial report in Parasitology research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04149106 (Effectiveness of Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention in Koulikoro, Mali), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
Treatment failure with amodiaquine was reported in Dangassa, where red blood cell (RBC) polymorphisms are found and seasonal malaria chemoprevention (SMC) is underway. Here, we aimed at assessing the influence of RBC polymorphisms on SMC effectiveness. This was a secondary analysis of data from a study conducted in Dangassa. Children aged 5 to 14 years enrolled in an open randomized study were assigned either to receive SMC (intervention arm) or not (control arm). SMC was implemented from July to November. For all children, hemoglobin type and blood group were determined at enrolment in July, and parasitemia and hemoglobin level were monthly monitored by finger-prick. Overall, 166 children were enrolled among which 82 (49.40%) in the control arm and 84 (50.60%) in the SMC arm. The prevalence of HbAS was 10.24% (17/166) with 12.20% in the control and 8.33% in the SMC arm. O group was the most common overall (45%) and in the SMC arm (54%), but the control arm had more B (39.02%) than O (36.59%). In the SMC arm, no case of Plasmodium infection and malaria disease was observed in the 7 HbAS children while in Non-HbAS children, peaks of infection and disease prevalence were respectively observed in October (24.66%) and November (7.14%). For the SMC arm, in group O and Non-group O, Plasmodium infection cases were observed from August to December. Plasmodium infection and malaria disease were more frequently observed in HbAS children in the control arm than in the SMC arm. Further studies are needed to assess factors associated with the asymptomatic carriage of parasites during SMC in Dangassa. NCT04149106.
