Toward Setting Minimum and Optimal Data to Report for Malaria Molecular Surveillance with Targeted Sequencing: The "What" and "Why".
Article in The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic showcased the power of genomic surveillance in tracking infectious diseases, driving rapid public health responses, and global collaboration. This same infrastructure is being leveraged for malaria molecular surveillance (MMS) in Africa to address challenges such as artemisinin partial resistance and deletions in the Plasmodium falciparum histidine-rich protein 2 and 3 genes. However, variability in reporting sequencing methods and data reporting currently limits the validation, comparability, and reuse of data. To maximize the impact of MMS, minimal and optimal data that are key for validation and maximizing transparency and findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable principles are proposed for reporting. Rather than focusing on specific data formats, in the current study, the authors propose what should be reported and why. Progressing to reporting individual infection-level polymorphism or microhaplotype data is central to maximizing the impact of MMS. Reporting must adhere to local regulatory practices and ensure proper data oversight and management, preventing data colonialism and preserving opportunities for data generators. With malaria's challenges transcending borders, reporting and adopting standardized practices are essential to advancing research and strengthening global public health efforts.
