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

A large population of patients with recurring infections are undiagnosed or under diagnosed and Primary Immunodeficiency (PI) is more common than had been previously estimated. The results strongly indicate the measurable impact of Physician Education and Public Awareness in identifying patients with an underlying PI. The Jeffrey Modell Centers Network (JMCN) provides the infrastructure for referral, diagnosis and appropriate treatment. All disease classifications and identified defects increased significantly over the study period. Quality of Life for referred and diagnosed patients dramatically improved compared to undiagnosed patients. There is a substantial cost savings for diagnosed patients compared to undiagnosed, even if regular IgG is required. The SPIRIT(®) Software successfully identified patients with PI in a large database and at three pilot sites. The Software was successfully tested for specificity and sensitivity.
