Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Tolerability of Subcutaneous Immune Globulin Injection (Human), 10 % Caprylate/Chromatography Purified (GAMUNEX®-C) in Pediatric Patients with Primary Immunodeficiency Disease.
Trial report in Journal of clinical immunology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01465958 (An Open-label, Single-sequence, Crossover Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability of Subcutaneous GAMUNEX®-C in Pediatric Subjects With Primary Immunodeficiency), which is not on this map.

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.
The trial behind it

Abstract
purposeThis phase 4, multicenter, open-labeled, single-sequence, crossover study in pediatric patients (ages 2 to 16) with primary immunodeficiency disease (PID) evaluated the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability for subcutaneously (SC) administered 10 % caprylate/chromatography purified human immune globulin injection (IGIV-C, GAMUNEX®) compared with intravenously (IV) administered IGIV-C.
methodsThis study included a screening phase, run-in phase (where required), IV treatment phase, SC treatment phase, and end of study/early termination visit. Eligible patients receiving a stable dose of IGIV-C entered into the IV phase to receive two IV infusions of IGIV-C (200-600 mg/kg per infusion) every 3-4 weeks. The weekly SC dose of IGIV-C was calculated using a conversion factor of 1.37 times the prior IV dose.
resultsTwelve subjects between the ages of 2 and 16 years participated in the clinical study with the median age being 11 years old. The adjusted weekly mean AUC0-τ,IV was 216,873.7 h*mg/dL for the IV phase versus a mean AUC0-τ,SC of 230,830.0 h*mg/dL for the SC phase. The mean (range) C trough was 997.2 (784-1320) mg/dL in the IV phase and 1325.0 (1077-1690) mg/dL in the SC phase. During the SC phase, 100.0 % of the patients (n = 11) experienced treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) that were local infusion reactions and 9 patients (81.8 %) had TEAEs that were non-infusion site reactions. The majority of TEAEs were mild or moderate in severity.
conclusionIn pediatric patients with PID, SC-administered IGIV-C provides comparable overall serum exposure to total IgG to that produced by IV-administered IGIV-C. We have concluded that weekly SC administration of 10 % IGIV-C based on a dose conversion factor of 1.37 is safe and well-tolerated in pediatric patients with PID.
