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

Background: Malaria transmission in the Sahel persists during the dry season despite low microscopic parasite prevalence, maintaining reservoirs that hinder elimination efforts. Understanding serological markers of Materials and Methods: We conducted a cross‑sectional survey in Kéniéroba, Mali, at three time points representing key seasonal periods: December 2024 (end of rainy season), May 2025 (dry season), and August 2025 (rainy season). A total of 356 participants were enrolled across three age groups (5-8, 9-17, and ≥18 yrs). Parasitaemia and gametocytaemia were assessed by microscopy. IgG and IgM responses to clinically isolated late-stage gametocytes were quantified by ELISA, and seropositivity thresholds defined using malaria‑naïve controls. Results: Microscopic Conclusions: In conclusion, serological analyses indicate widespread and seasonally variable exposure to
