Meta-analysis of artemisinin-combination therapy (ACT) versus chloroquine (CQ) for treatment of Plasmodium knowlesi malaria, showing difference in proportional parasite clearance at 24 hours. The red and green squares are the relative weight given to each study in the meta-analysis (ie, 65 and 35%, respectively) based on the number of participants in the 2 studies (226 vs 123). The proportional difference in risk of parasite clearance at 24 hours between treatment arms. Abbreviations: ACT, artemisinin-combination therapy; AL, artemether-lumefantrine; ASMQ, artesunate-mefloquine; CI, confidence interval; CQ, chloroquine; RD, risk difference.
