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

Background: Methods: Entomological surveys were conducted in 500 randomly selected households (250 rural, 250 urban) during the rainy and dry seasons of 2022 and 2023. Immature mosquitoes were collected from water-holding containers, and adult mosquitoes were sampled using aspirators. Entomological indices, including Results: All entomological indices were significantly higher in rural communities than in urban areas across both years and seasons. Rural households had greater mosquito densities, with pupal productivity concentrated in large water storage containers. Adult mosquito collections confirmed a greater Discussion: Contrary to the conventional view of Conclusion: Rural areas play a crucial role in sustaining
