18q Deletion Syndrome Presenting with Late-Onset Combined Immunodeficiency.
Article in Journal of clinical immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Patients with chromosome 18q deletion syndrome generally experience hypogammaglobulinemia. Herein, we describe two patients with chromosome 18q deletion syndrome who presented with late-onset combined immune deficiency (LOCID), which has not been previously reported. Patient 1 was a 29-year-old male with 18q deletion syndrome, who was being managed for severe motor and intellectual disabilities at the Yamabiko Medical Welfare Center for 26 years. Although the patient had few infections, he developed Pneumocystis pneumonia at the age of 28. Patient 2, a 48-year-old female with intellectual disability and congenital malformations, was referred to Tokyo Medical and Dental University Hospital with abnormal bilateral lung shadows detected on her chest radiography. Computed tomography showed multiple lymphadenopathies and pneumonia. A lymph node biopsy of the inguinal region revealed granulomatous lymphadenitis, and a chromosomal examination revealed 18q deletion. Array-based genomic hybridization analysis revealed deletion at 18q21.32-q22.3 for patient 1 and at 18q21.33-qter for patient 2. Immune status work-up of the two patients revealed panhypogammaglobulinemia, decreased number of memory B cells and naïve CD4
