A primary immunodeficiency disorder associated with absence of lymphoid germinal centers.
Article in Journal of clinical immunology, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In this article we describe three infants who suffered from a disorder characterized by splenomegaly, anemia, and severe infections beginning during the first months of life. Immunologic studies revealed agammaglobulinemia. However, normal numbers of lymphocytes and lymphocyte subsets were present in peripheral blood, and lymphocyte proliferation in responses to mitogenic stimulation in vitro was normal. Histologic and immunohistologic studies performed in one of the patients revealed lack of secondary follicles and follicular dendritic cells in lymphoid tissues and absence of plasma cells in the intestinal lamina propria. Similar findings have been observed in the hyper-IgM syndrome. However, these patients can be distinguished from currently recognized genetic variants of hyper-IgM syndrome on the basis of their clinical and histologic features, together with information obtained from DNA sequence analysis. Thus, their condition is likely to represent a novel form of primary immune deficiency with features of hyper-IgM syndrome.
