Implications for malaria transmission: a cross-sectional study on the bionomics and susceptibility of local malaria vectors in urban and periurban settings of Ndola district.
Article in BMJ open, 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
objectivesTo assess vector behaviour and phenotypic resistance for effective vector control programming.
designThis was a cross-sectional study.
settingThis study was conducted in the urban and periurban areas of Ndola district, Zambia. PARTICIPANTS/STUDY UNITS: A total of 166 houses were selected for adult mosquito collection, and an additional 60 collection efforts were made for larval collection from potential larval habitats. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcome was the behaviour of the malaria vectors, and the secondary outcome was their phenotypic resistance status.
resultsThe main breeding sites identified were irrigation trenches (4.67 larvae/dip) and garden ponds (2.72 larvae/dip) created from extensive urban agriculture practices.
