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

Malaria and leishmaniasis remain major vector-borne parasitic diseases in tropical and subtropical regions. The aim of this systematic review was to synthesize evidence on the epidemiology and shared ecological and epidemiological characteristics of malaria and leishmaniasis in Thailand from 2004 to 2025. This systematic review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines and utilized three databases, PubMed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect, supplemented by grey literature and manual reference screening. From 1397 records, a total of 57 studies were included (36 on malaria and 21 on leishmaniasis). Malaria transmission persisted mainly in border and forest-associated areas, with nine
