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

Congenital enterovirus infection can be associated with a pro-inflammatory state triggering haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). Enteroviruses are also known to cause transient neutropenia in healthy children. Two infants presented with temperature instability, lethargy, thrombocytopaenia, hepatosplenomegaly and evidence of hyperinflammation in the setting of perinatal maternal rash and household contacts with gastrointestinal symptoms. Whilst HLH was successfully treated in both, protracted neutropenia persisted. Immune dysregulation with enterovirus in the neonatal period can provoke the generation of autoantibodies to hematologic cells giving rise to conditions such as autoimmune neutropenia. Sustained neutropaenia, after resolution of secondary infectious forms of HLH, requires investigation for underlying aetiologies.
