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

Objectives: This study aims to identify the characteristics of domestic malaria by examining the status of malaria diagnoses referred to the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA) between 2021 and 2025. Methods: Malaria diagnostic samples referred to the KDCA were classified into private sector submissions from medical institutions and public sector submissions from public health centers and military hospitals. Malaria infection was confirmed by microscopic examination or molecular detection. Patient characteristics, such as parasitemia levels, were estimated using a formula based on real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) cycle threshold (C Results: The KDCA collected a total of 2,508 malaria-positive samples between 2021 and 2025. Domestic Conclusions: Accurate malaria diagnosis is essential for effective disease prevention and control. This study is expected to facilitate patient management and contribute to national malaria elimination by providing basic information through an analysis of the status of malaria diagnosis over five years.
