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

purposeImmunodysregulation, Polyendocrinopathy, Enteropathy, and X-linked syndrome (IPEX), caused by pathogenic FOXP3 variants, is a rare autoimmune disorder with diverse clinical features, including early-onset diabetes, eczema, and enteropathy. Atypical cases show milder symptoms and unique signs, requiring different treatments. Therefore, there are ambiguities in the accurate diagnosis and management of IPEX. We sought to present clinical, genetic, and immunological assessments of 12 IPEX patients with long-term follow-up to facilitate the diagnosis and management of the disease.

methodsClinical findings and treatment options of the patients were collected over time. Lymphocyte subpopulations, protein expressions, regulatory T (Treg) and circulating T follicular helper (cT

resultsPredominant presentations included autoimmunity (91.6%), failure to thrive (66.7%), and eczema (58.3%). There were four classical and eight atypical IPEX individuals. Allergic manifestations were more common in atypical patients. Notably, chronic diarrhea demonstrated heightened severity compared to other manifestations. Four patients (33.3%) demonstrated eosinophilia, and nine (75%) showed high serum IgE levels. Most patients exhibited normal percentages of Treg cells with reduced CD25, FOXP3, and CTLA-4 expressions, corrected after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Compared to healthy controls, the T

conclusionsThe first cohort from Turkey with long-term follow-up results, comparing typical and atypical cases, provides insights into the outcomes of different therapeutic modalities and T- cell subtype changes in IPEX syndrome.
