Assessing Anopheles species collection techniques in a low malaria transmission area: implications for vector surveillance and control.
Article in Malaria journal, 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
backgroundEffective entomological surveillance is crucial for malaria control, especially in low transmission settings. This study aimed to compare the performance of three mosquito collection methods (clay pots, carbon dioxide (CO
methodsFrom March 2019 to March 2020, adult mosquitoes were collected monthly from three different sites over five consecutive nights and mornings. Each collection method was used at each site to capture both outdoor resting and host-seeking mosquitoes. The collected mosquitoes were morphologically identified to the Anopheles genus and species, followed by confirmation using molecular PCR assays. The species composition, relative abundance, and diversity were evaluated, and statistical tests, including Kruskal-Wallis and ANOVA, were used to assess differences in abundance and diversity across collection sites and methods. A Generalized Linear Mixed Model was applied to assess the impact of various factors on species abundance.
resultsA total of 1337 Anopheles mosquitoes were collected, with 98.5% being females. CO
conclusionsThis study highlights the importance of choosing appropriate mosquito collection methods based on specific entomological indicators and transmission dynamics. While CO
