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

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is an X-linked immunodeficiency characterized by thrombocytopenia, eczema, and variable degrees of impaired cellular and humoral immunity. Age-dependent T-cell lymphopenia has been described in WAS, however, the diversity of the T-cell compartment over time in these patients has not been characterized. We have used complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) size distribution analysis to assess T-cell receptor (TCR) Vbeta repertoire in 13 patients with WAS. Diverse CDR3 size pattern was demonstrated in patients under 15 years of age regardless of the levels of WAS protein (WASP) expression. In contrast, older patients showed significantly higher skewing of TCRVbeta repertoire as compared with healthy adults. We did not find correlation between clinical score and complexity of TCRVbeta repertoire. These findings suggest that WASP deficiency does not limit thymic generation of a normal TCR and indicate that T-cell oligoclonality may contribute to the immunodeficiency in older patients with WAS.
