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

Scabies, a common parasitic skin disease caused by Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis, presents diagnostic challenges because of its diverse clinical manifestations and the limited sensitivity of traditional methods, such as skin scraping. Here, we developed a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay targeting two S. scabiei-specific genes, Sarcoptes scabiei allergen Sar s 3 (Sars3) and Internal Transcribed Spacer 2 (ITS2). To enhance operational simplicity, a direct lysis protocol was employed, enabling rapid template DNA acquisition from skin scraping specimens without conventional DNA extraction. Primer sets were optimized for amplification speed and specificity; reaction temperatures were determined to be 67 °C for Sars3 and 61 °C for ITS2. The assay achieved detection within 35 min, with limits of detection of 10
