Otitis Media and Inborn Errors of Immunity.
Review in Current allergy and asthma reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purpose of reviewThe aim of this review is as follows: (1) to present the role of otitis as a warning sign for inborn errors of immunity (IEI), (2) to establish which patients presenting otitis should be investigated for IEI, (3) to review data about main IEI associated with otitis-prone patients. RECENT
findingsOtitis media is a very common infection in general population. The concept of otitis-prone children established a certain frequency of the infections in order to look for conditions leading to them. The confirmation of middle ear impairment by specialists has demonstrated better confiability. The hallmarks for immunologic evaluation are the presence of complications as mastoiditis and membrane perforation, failure to thrive, and additional respiratory symptoms. Humoral immunodeficiencies have been more frequently described in association with otitis-prone patients, for example, hypogammaglobulinemia, MBL deficiency, and IEI associated with major syndromes. Most of the patients with confirmed IEI present otitis as one of the recurrent infections. It is suggested the investigation of immune defects in patients with otitis, and the following warning signs are suggested: Otitis evolving with mastoiditis, abscesses, or systemic infections; no response to appropriate antibiotic therapy; otitis media associated with other infections; recurrent otitis leading to failure to thrive and general developmental delay; and family history of primary immunodeficiency and/or consanguinity.
