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

Intestinal parasitic infections (IPIs), caused by helminths and/or protozoa, continue to be a significant public health concern in Indonesia. Water access, sanitation, and hygiene practices (WASH) are influential factors for IPIs, especially among children. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between WASH and IPIs among school-aged children. A cross-sectional study involving 338 school-age children in an urban slum area in North Jakarta, Indonesia, was conducted using stool specimens subjected to microscopic and real-time polymerase chain reaction (rt-PCR) examination. The children underwent a finger-prick blood test and anthropometric measurements to determine anemia and nutritional status. Parents whose children participated in stool and blood examinations were interviewed using a modified WASH questionnaire. Helminth infections were not found in this study, whereas the overall prevalence of intestinal protozoa parasitic infection (IPPI) was 18.3% and 52.4% by microscopy and rt-PCR, respectively.
