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

purpose of reviewPrimary immune regulatory disorders (PIRD) are a growing subset of diseases referred to as inborn errors of immunity. Unlike classical primary immune deficiency disorders that typically present with severe, recurrent, or unusual infections, the clinical manifestations of PIRD are dominated by immune-mediated diseases (autoimmunity, autoinflammation/hyperinflammation, lymphoproliferation, malignancy, and severe atopy). This review introduces the concept of PIRD including clinical phenotypes, treatments, and new PIRD-associated gene defects. RECENT

findingsThe number of genetic defects associated with PIRD is rapidly growing. The identified genes often encode proteins that play critical roles in regulating the immune response to various triggers. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying PIRD has shed light on the clinical phenotypes and has helped to identify targeted therapies. In some cases, hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) has been successfully employed as a cure. SUMMARY: It is important to recognize the broad clinical manifestations of PIRD as patients may have symptoms atypical of classical 'immunodeficiency'. Because of their diverse immune dysregulation problems, they are often primarily managed by other subspecialists. Immunologists can help connect the diverse immune-mediated pathologies to a gene defect. This, in turn, can play a significant role in directing clinical management, selecting effective therapy, and deciding on appropriateness of HCT.
