Mitigating Resistance to Malaria Treatments in Sub-Saharan Africa Requires More than New Drugs.
Article in The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 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
In September 2024, the US President's Malaria Initiative; the Global Fund for AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria; the Gates Foundation; and Unitaid called for malaria partners to increase the availability and lower the cost of alternative artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs) for countries with growing evidence of resistance to artemisinin and current ACT partner drugs, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Although these global leaders should be applauded for raising this challenge to the highest levels, they missed the opportunity to highlight a major driver of resistance to malaria treatments: the limited access to high-quality health services for malaria. Progress has been made in scaling up integrated community case management and clinical and laboratory quality improvement programs, but few malaria-affected countries have achieved national scale. If affected countries and their partners do not want to confront resistance to these newer alternative ACTs in the near future, they must take more decisive action now to expand access and improve the quality of malaria services.
