Oral surgery complication resulting from undiagnosed common variable immunodeficiency: a case report.
Article in Oral and maxillofacial surgery, 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
purposeThis report aims to present an interdisciplinary approach to diagnosing and treating a case of Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID), an inborn error of immunity, resulting in successive complications following a third molar extraction procedure. CASE PRESENTATION: The patient, a 37-year-old Caucasian female, sought a specialist for the extraction of an impacted lower third molar associated with dentigerous cyst. Due to the possibility of mandibular fracture, a bone fixation system was used in the region. However, she experienced recurrent infections following the procedure despite various treatments and hospitalizations, and these infections could not be explained by any factors. The diagnosis of CVID was established through exclusionary factors, low immunoglobulin levels, and comprehensive allergy assessments by an immunologist. Resolution of the patient's condition and discharge were achieved only after removing the fixation system and implementing monthly immunoglobulin infusions.
conclusionCVID is often diagnosed late, resulting in significant economic, social, and health burdens, including recurrent hospitalizations, allergies, and increased risk of malignancy. This case underscores the importance of considering CVID in patients presenting with unexplained recurrent infections following oral and maxillofacial surgeries. Additionally, it highlights the necessity of a multidisciplinary approach for effectively managing patients with CVID.
