Toward an Open Analysis Ecosystem for Plasmodium Genomic Epidemiology.
Article in The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Major advances in Plasmodium sequencing approaches, bioinformatic pipelines, and data analysis tools have provided valuable insights into malaria epidemiology from parasite genomic data. However, translating genetic data into actionable information for decision-makers remains a challenge. Significant barriers limit the integration of these advances into a functional data analysis ecosystem that produces standardized, interpretable results for use by national malaria control programs. The Plasmodium Genomic Epidemiology network convened 18 subject matter experts across 15 institutions at the Reproducibility, Accessibility, Documentation, and Interoperability Standards Hackathon in 2023 to identify available analysis tools, evaluate software standards, improve documentation, and outline workflows. Eight use cases for genomic data were identified, and a subset was developed into analysis workflows comprising a series of connected functionalities. Software tools were then mapped against functionalities to outline a modular approach to data analysis for these use cases. In addition to outlining workflows, a set of objective criteria was developed for evaluating software standards. A total of 40 Plasmodium genomic analysis tools were identified, 22 of which were prioritized for software standards evaluation. Additional tutorials were developed for 10 tools in the form of reproducible code applied to shared datasets. These resources are available on PGEforge (mrc-ide.github.io/PGEforge), a new community resource that serves as a central, open repository for current and future resources for malaria genomic data analysis.
