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

Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a rare immunodeficiency syndrome which presents with wide manifestations leading to delayed diagnosis. A 34-year-old woman presented to our hospital complaining of dyspnea and productive cough. Lung CT scan revealed loculated right-sided pleural effusion with bronchiectasis and consolidation in right lower lobes. After taking medical history and physical examination, we suspected CVID and ordered serum immunoglobulin levels. The laboratory results were in line with CVID diagnosis and showed decreased levels of IgG, IgM, and IgA. The patient was started on intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) therapy every month. After 3-month follow-up, the patient reported no problem and felt better.
