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

purposeWe present a patient with CARD9 deficiency and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA)-like presentation.

methodsFollowing medical history taking and routine laboratory investigations, an inborn error of immunity was suspected, and the responsible variant was identified using Whole Exome Sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing.

resultsA 14-year-old Iranian female presented with a history of chest pain, productive cough, dyspnea, malaise, and recurrent fever. Imaging by computed tomography (CT scan), chest X-ray (CXR), bronchoscopy, transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB), and histopathology findings led to a diagnosis of ABPA-like presentation. The genetic study showed an autosomal recessive homozygous mutation in the CARD9 gene. Clinical remission was achieved following the administration of voriconazole, which was continued as prophylaxis.

conclusionsThis is the first-time report of a patient with inherited CARD9 deficiency and ABPA-like presentation due to Aspergillus Terrus. This study paves the way to elucidate immunological mechanisms underlying CARD9 deficiency and aspergillosis.
