Targeting Malaria's Achilles' Heels: A Review of Plasmodium Life Cycle Vulnerabilities for Drug Discovery.
Review in Current topics in medicinal chemistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The global rise of drug-resistant malaria parasites is becoming an increasing threat to public health, emphasizing the urgent need for the development of new therapeutic strategies. Artimisinin- based therapies, once the backbone of malaria treatment, are now at risk due to the resistance developed in parasites. The lack of a universally accessible malaria vaccine exacerbates this crisis, underscoring the need to explore new antimalarial drugs. A more comprehensive understanding of the parasites's life cycle has revealed several promising targets, including enzymes, transport proteins, and essential metabolic pathways that the parasite relies on for its survival and proliferation. This review provides an in-depth analysis of the vulnerabilities displayed by Plasmodium and recent advances that highlight potential drug targets and candidate molecules.
