Development and longevity of naturally acquired antibody and memory B cell responses against Plasmodium vivax infection.
Review in PLoS neglected tropical diseases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 vivax malaria causes significant public health problems in endemic regions. Considering the rapid spread of drug-resistant parasite strains and the development of hypnozoites in the liver with potential for relapse, development of a safe and effective vaccine for preventing, controlling, and eliminating the infection is critical. Immunity to malaria is mediated by antibodies that inhibit sporozoite or merozoite invasion into host cells and protect against clinical disease. Epidemiologic data from malaria endemic regions show the presence of naturally acquired antibodies to P. vivax antigens during and following infection. But data on the persistence of these antibodies, development of P. vivax-specific memory B cells (MBCs), and their relation to reduction of malaria severity and risk is limited. This review provides an overview of the acquisition and persistence of naturally acquired humoral immunity to P. vivax infection. Also, we summarize and discuss current progress in assessment of immune responses to candidate vaccine antigens in P. vivax patients from different transmission settings. Longitudinal studies of MBC and antibody responses to these antigens will open new avenues for developing vaccines against malaria infection and its transmission.
