Multidisciplinary Delphi consensus on malignancy screening in patients with common variable immunodeficiency.

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
Introduction: Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is the most frequent symptomatic inborn error of immunity (IEI) in adults and is characterized by recurrent infections, immune dysregulation, and an increased risk of malignancy. Cancer represents a major cause of morbidity and mortality in this population, particularly hematological malignancies and gastric carcinoma. Data from the Spanish cohort report malignancy rates of up to 15%, with substantial variability in surveillance practices across centers. Despite this well-established cancer predisposition, standardized, evidence-based screening strategies are lacking, and no specific recommendations for malignancy surveillance in CVID currently exist. Therefore, this two-round Delphi consensus aimed to develop expert-based recommendations for cancer screening and surveillance in patients with CVID. Methods: The process included 39 multidisciplinary experts from 22 Spanish hospitals, including adult and pediatric centers, who evaluated a structured questionnaire comprising 87 statements across four domains: epidemiology/risk factors, solid tumors, hematological malignancies, and immunological biomarkers. The questionnaire was developed from a targeted literature review, and statements were rated using a five-point Likert scale, with consensus defined as ≥70% agreement/disagreement. Results: Overall, 70 statements, corresponding to 80.5%, reached agreement. Consensus supported systematic genetic testing at diagnosis and annual immunophenotyping to identify malignancy risk markers. In adults, baseline upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with histology-guided follow-up was recommended, together with annual Discussion: This Delphi consensus proposes a structured approach to malignancy screening and surveillance in CVID from the time of diagnosis, encompassing gastric, hematological, and immunological assessment. These cancer-focused recommendations are intended to complement existing CVID management guidance, supporting earlier detection of malignancy and reducing variability in clinical practice.
