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

The "South American Research Network for the Surveillance and Control of Insecticide-Resistance in Arthropod Vectors" (WINSA), established in 2024 by the IRD and FIOCRUZ with support from the US-CDC VecNet initiative and WHO-TDR, aims to coordinate research on insecticide resistance in arthropod vectors in South America, provide a platform for regional collaboration, and develop effective mitigation strategies. WINSA brings together leading technical experts representing research institutions from 14 countries and territories located in South America, the USA, and France to promote collaboration and information exchange, identify research gaps and priorities, enhance technical capacity in insecticide resistance monitoring, and support national and regional programs on vector resistance issues. This network seeks to contribute to the reduction and elimination of vector-borne diseases in South America.
