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

backgroundCommon variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a heterogeneous group of immune disorders. The patients are classified according to the clinical manifestation with the infection-only phenotype (CVID

methodsWe performed a retrospective clinical analysis of 64 CVID patients (34 males, 53.13%; mean age: 41.4 years; SD: ±21.4 years). We divided the patients into subgroups according to the clinical manifestation (CVID

resultsTwo-thirds of patients in our cohort had symptoms resulting from immune dysregulation. Almost half of the patients had autoimmune complications. A higher proportion of marginal zone B cells was associated with autoimmune complications. A lower percentage of naïve B cells was connected to autoimmunity, whereas a lower proportion of transitional B cells was associated with rheumatic diseases and splenomegaly. Patients with lymphadenopathy had a higher percentage of double-negative T cells and a lower percentage of switched memory B cells. We performed molecular-genetic testing in 28% (n = 17) of patients and found a causal pathogenic variant in 23.5% (n = 4) of this group.

conclusionBased on our results, there is an association between specific cytometric parameters, clinical phenotype, and complications of CVID. The use of the subpopulations of B cells can be helpful in the diagnosis of these specific clinical complications in CVID patients and could help to personalise the therapeutic approach.
