ParasitoBank dataset for diagnosing intestinal parasitism: Helminths and protozoa in coprological samples.
Article in Data in brief, 2025. 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
Intestinal parasitism is an infection that affects people worldwide, with populations in developing countries being at a higher risk of acquiring it. This infection is contracted for various reasons, mainly related to poor sanitary conditions and inadequate food practices, leading to multiple health issues such as malnutrition, intestinal obstructions, epilepsy, and others. Identifying parasitic species is essential for establishing appropriate antiparasitic therapy, which in turn helps reduce the risk of associated morbidities. For this reason, a dataset named "ParasitoBank" was created, containing 779 images of the visual field of fresh stool samples analysed under a microscope using the serial coprological technique. These images were acquired using a Motorola G84 mobile phone, and a data-labeling process resulted in a total of 1,620 intestinal parasites, with a particular focus on intestinal protozoa. The images have an approximate aspect ratio of 1:1 with a resolution of 2100 × 2100. Label information and some metadata for the images have been included in a JSON file following the "Common Objects in Context" (COCO) format. Finally, the entire dataset and label content have been arranged in a compressed file. The presented information facilitates the use of the data for various studies, spanning education and artificial intelligence development.
