Evaluation of a Rapid Immuno-Chromatographic Test for Schistosoma japonicum in Indonesia.
Article in Acta parasitologica, 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
objectiveto evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of a rapid diagnostic test based on immunochromatography for detecting IgG antibodies in serum against Schistosoma japonicum in Indonesia.
methodsBlood and stool samples were collected from an endemic area in Indonesia to compare and evaluate the applicability of using a JDBIOTECH Schi IgG Rapid Test.
resultsBased on the research results, out of the total of 226 individuals, 38 individuals were declared positive for S. japonicum infection by microscopic examination, in which 36 individuals were declared positive while 2 individuals were declared negative for the infection by JDBIOTECH Schi IgG Rapid Test. Out of the 226 samples, 190 individuals were declared negative for S. japonicum infection by microscopic examination, 186 individuals were declared negative, while 4 individuals were declared positive for the infection by JDBIOTECH Schi IgG Rapid Test. The sensitivity and specificity of the JDBIOTECH Schi IgG Rapid Test were 94.44% (95% CI 81.34-99.32%) and 97.89% (95% CI 94.70-99.42%), respectively.
conclusionsEvaluation of JDBIOTECH Schi IgG Rapid Test for the detection of Schistosoma japonicum in Indonesia has yielded promising results. The test exhibited high sensitivity, correctly identifying 34 out of 36 confirmed cases. Furthermore, it demonstrated excellent specificity by accurately identifying 186 out of 190 uninfected individuals. These findings highlight the substantial potential of the JDBIOTECH Schi IgG Rapid Test as a valuable tool for the early diagnosis of Schistosoma japonicum infections within the Indonesian population.
