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

In this hospital-based, cross-sectional study, immunoglobulin levels and lymphocyte subsets status were evaluated in children with infantile tremor syndrome (ITS) [neurocutaneous infantile B12 deficiency (NIB) syndrome]. Blood samples were drawn at the baseline (n = 28) and at 6 wk (n = 25) after treatment. A low IgG/IgA or IgM was more likely in untreated children than post-treatment (p = 0.0368). Low B cells were observed in 9 (36%), low T cells in 5 (20%), and low NK cells in 2 patients. T cell subset analysis showed low CD4 + helper T cells in 5 (20%) and low CD8 + cytotoxic T cells in 2 patients. Abnormally low percentage of low B cell/T cells/NK cells was more likely in untreated children than post-treatment (p = 0.0165). In conclusion, a proportion of children with ITS have changes in immunoglobulin and T cell subsets not consistent with any clearly defined immune abnormality, and not all such changes revert at 6 wk.
