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

Parasitic sexually transmitted infections are spread through sexual contact (vaginal, oral, and/or anal sex). The majority of parasitic STIs involve protozoan pathogens (ie, Trichomonas vaginalis, Entamoeba histolytica, and Giardia duodenalis ); however, ectoparasitic infections ( Pthirus pubis and Sarcoptes scabiei ) are also included in this group. The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive summary of the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of parasitic sexually transmitted infections, with a particular focus on their impact on women.
