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

backgroundThe establishment of the invasive malaria vector Anopheles stephensi in Ethiopia threatens existing malaria control efforts. Unlike native vectors, An. stephensi thrives in both urban and rural areas, lacks clear seasonal peaks of abundance, and often breeds in artificial water containers. SumiLarv

methodsEntomological surveillance identified 102 large artificial containers ("birkas") which were randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to receive either SumiLarv

resultsThe number of SumiLarv

conclusionsThe high and sustained efficacy of SumiLarv
