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

Lymphopenia is defined as a peripheral lymphocyte count lower than 1500/mm3 in adults and 4500/mm3 in children younger than eight months of age. We propose a classification of lymphopenia according to the mechanism involved: lymphocyte production defects, including primary immune deficiencies and immune deficiencies secondary to malnutrition or zinc deprivation; excess catabolism, due to causes including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, immunosuppressive therapy, HIV infection, and systemic lupus erythematosus; abnormal lymphocyte trapping, including mainly splenomegaly, certain viral infections, septic shock, extended burns, systemic granulomatosis, and corticosteroids; other causes of lymphocytopenia, with mechanisms that remain poorly understood: ethnicity (Ethiopians), lymphoma, renal insufficiency, and idiopathic CD4 lymphocytopenia.
