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 caused by a mutation in the WAS gene, and it is clinically characterized by the triad of thrombocytopenia, eczema and immunodeficiency. X-linked thrombocytopenia (XLT), which is a clinically mild form of WAS, is also caused by a WAS gene mutation. Patients with WAS/XLT sometimes also have autoimmune diseases such as IgA nephropathy. Progression of IgA nephropathy may lead to chronic renal failure with a poor prognosis. Here, we describe an XLT patient who also had IgA nephropathy. The patient underwent bone marrow transplantation (BMT) because of an associated-lymphoproliferative disorder, and clinical and histological improvement in his IgA nephropathy was observed after BMT. The amount of galactose-deficient IgA in the patient's serum markedly decreased after BMT. Therefore, immunological reconstitution might improve autoimmune diseases in patients with WAS/XLT.
