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

Objectives: Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) are a diverse group of disorders arising from defects in the development and/or function of the immune system. However, data concerning the microbiological aspects of infections and direct causes of mortality in patients with IEI are limited and fragmented. This study aimed to elucidate the causes of disease and terminal events leading to death in a cohort of patients with IEI. Methods: This retrospective study included deceased patients who were diagnosed with primary immunodeficiency at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital in Muscat, Oman, over an 18-year period between 2005 and 2023. Data on clinical features, infections, isolated microorganisms and terminal events leading to death were collected and analyzed. Results: A total of 53 cases were included in this study. The mean age at death was 9.1 ± 10.4 years (median: 3.9 years, interquartile range: 15.2 years, range: 0.2-45.2 years). Prior to death, the most frequently isolated microorganisms included Conclusion: Understanding factors contributing to terminal events in IEI patients can inform early intervention strategies and potentially reduce mortality rates.
