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

We present five cases of common variable immunodeficiency (CVID), comprising three women and two men with a mean age of 23.8 ± 9.2 years. All our patients suffered from recurrent bronchopneumonitis, with complications of purulent pleurisy in two cases, requiring decortication in one case, and resulting in bronchiectasis in three cases. Digestive tract infections were observed in four patients, while two patients presented with ENT infections. One case was complicated by bacterial meningitis. All patients presented with global hypogammaglobulinemia, with CVID and granulomatous manifestation in one case. Treatment consisted of monthly immunoglobulin infusions.
