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

To determine the prevalence and clinical characteristics of patients with in Japan, we conducted a nationwide survey of primary immunodeficiency disease (PID) patients for the first time in 30 years. Questionnaires were sent to 1,224 pediatric departments and 1,670 internal medicine departments of Japanese hospitals. A total of 1,240 patients were registered. The estimated number of patients with PID was 2,900 with a prevalence of 2.3 per 100,000 people and homogenous regional distribution in Japan. The male-to-female ratio was 2.3:1 with a median age of 12.8 years. Adolescents or adults constituted 42.8% of the patients. A number of 25 (2.7%) and 78 (8.5%) patients developed malignant disorders and immune-related diseases, respectively, as complications of primary immunodeficiency disease. Close monitoring and appropriate management for these complications in addition to prevention of infectious diseases is important for improving the quality of life of PID patients.
