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

Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a primary immunodeficiency that often goes unrecognized until adolescence or adulthood. Granulomatous-lymphocytic interstitial lung disease (GLILD) is a non-infectious pulmonary complication of CVID that can be subtle, sometimes presenting before significant infections or systemic symptoms. A 19-year-old female patient presented with mild flu-like symptoms. Examination revealed splenomegaly, and routine labs showed mild anaemia and thrombocytopenia. Despite rapid recovery from influenza A, persistent splenomegaly prompted further evaluation. Chest CT demonstrated multiple nodules, ground-glass opacities, and mediastinal lymphadenopathy, findings surprisingly disproportionate to her mild symptoms. Her history of recurrent childhood infections, combined with marked hypogammaglobulinemia and abnormal B-cell immunophenotyping (including increased CD21
