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

DOCK8 deficiency syndrome, formerly known as autosomal recessive hyper-IgE syndrome (AR-HIES), is a rare combined immunodeficiency disorder characterized by recurrent infections, eczema, eosinophilia, and elevated immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels. We present a case of a 6-year-old girl with DOCK8 deficiency syndrome, who experienced recurrent skin infections and molluscum contagiosum since infancy. Genetic testing confirmed the diagnosis. Due to the high morbidity and mortality associated with DOCK8 deficiency syndrome, she underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from her father. Posttransplant, the patient's skin condition significantly improved, and she achieved full donor chimerism. This case highlights the importance of considering DOCK8 deficiency in patients with recurrent infections, eczema, eosinophilia, and high IgE levels, and the potential curative effect of HSCT for these patients.
