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

CGD is a rare inherited immunodeficiency syndrome, caused by the phagocytes' inability to produce (sufficient) reactive oxygen metabolites. This dysfunction is due to a defect in the NADPH oxidase, the enzyme responsible for the production of superoxide. It is composed of several subunits, two of which, gp91phox and p22phox, form the membrane-bound cytochrome b558, while its three cytosolic components, p47phox, p67phox and p40phox, have to translocate to the membrane upon activation. This is a tightly and intricately controlled process that involves, among others, several low-molecular weight GTP-binding proteins. Gp91phox is encoded on the X-chromosome and p22phox, p47phox and p67phox on different autosomal chromosomes, and a defect in one of these components leads to CGD. This explains the variable mode of inheritance seen in this syndrome. Clinically CGD manifests itself typically already at a very young age with recurrent and serious infections, most often caused by catalase-positive pathogens. Modern treatment options, including prophylaxis with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and rIFN-gamma as well as early and aggressive anti-infection therapy, have improved the prognosis of this disease dramatically. CGD, as a very well-characterized inherited affection of the hematopoietic stem cells, is predestined to be among the first diseases to profit from the advances in cutting-edge therapeutics, such as gene therapy and in utero stem cell transplantation.
