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: Migrants from malaria-endemic areas may have asymptomatic parasitemia that persists after relocating to nonendemic countries. Recommendations on malaria screening and treatment of asymptomatic infections in migrants are lacking. The aim of this study was to explore the clinical features of subclinical blood-stage Methods: A retrospective observational study was performed to evaluate clinical data from medical records of asymptomatic sub-Saharan African migrants identified with parasitic infection within a screening study in Stockholm, Sweden. Clinical data from hospital outpatient visits were compared between malaria polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-positive and PCR-negative individuals, the latter assessed for schistosomiasis and/or strongyloidiasis. Results: Clinical features and chemistry tests from 65 Conclusions: Migrants with subclinical
