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

Introduction: Malaria remains a major public health concern with substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide. In Malaysia, the emergence of Methods: Archived plasma samples from 19 patients with confirmed symptomatic knowlesi infection and 19 healthy, age-matched controls from Peninsular Malaysia were analysed. A total of 52 plasma biomarkers of brain injury, inflammation, and vascular activation were measured using Luminex and SIMOA assays. Wilcoxon tests were used to examine group differences, and biomarker profiles were explored through hierarchical clustering heatmap analysis. Results: Bonferroni-corrected analyses revealed significantly elevated brain injury biomarker levels in knowlesi-infected patients, including S100B (p<0.0001), Tau (p=0.0007), UCH-L1 (p<0.0001), αSyn (p<0.0001), Park7 (p=0.0006), NRGN (p=0.0022), and TDP-43 (p=0.005). Compared to controls, levels were lower in the infected group for BDNF (p<0.0001), CaBD (p<0.0001), CNTN1 (p<0.0001), NCAM-1 (p<0.0001), GFAP (p=0.0013), and KLK6 (p=0.0126). Hierarchical clustering revealed distinct group profiles for circulating levels of brain injury and vascular activation biomarkers. Conclusions: Our findings highlight for the first time the impact of
