[Adult-onset primary immunodeficiencies].
Article in Der Internist, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Different individuals with the same kind of primary immunodeficiency may start having symptoms from early childhood on, or alternatively much later in adult life, or never. The differences in phenotype can only partly be deduced from genotype-analysis or--in case of female patients with X-linked diseases--from age-related skewing of lyonisation. The role of compensatory immune mechanisms is less clear. The microbial spectrum of infections is usually the same for both adult and infantile forms of a special primary immunodeficiency syndrome. Yet, many of the adult forms are associated with non-infectious complications, such as granuloma formation, autoimmunity or tumors. Besides standard antibiotic treatment and IgG replacement therapy, there are now different cytokine- or enzyme-replacement regimens available for some of the primary immunodeficiencies. However, exact diagnostic classification of the immunodeficiency should be obtained before such treatment modalities are used. Adult primary immunodeficiency syndromes therefore represent a challenge to both clinicians and molecular biologists.
