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 discovery of novel antimalarial drugs against Plasmodium falciparum has become globally urgent due to the consistent increase in mortality, morbidity, and drug resistance in endemic areas.

methodsUsing an in-house library, novel antimalarial agents were identified through in vitro high-throughput screening (HTS) and meta-analysis. Hit compounds were selected from the primary HTS at 10 µM and confirmed in a dose-dependent manner to determine their IC₅₀ values. The identified hit molecules were further selected based on the following criteria: novelty, antimalarial activity (IC

resultsBased on the top 3% threshold, 256 compounds were selected for dose‒response curve analysis from the HTS. Among them, 110 compounds without published research related to Plasmodium and 157 compounds with IC

conclusionsCombining HTS and meta-analysis provides a robust method for screening antimalarial candidate compounds and identifying new hits with in vivo activity as candidates to treat drug-resistant malarial strains.
