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

Prevention of sensitization, onset of disease and disease exacerbations is a very important aspect of holistic approach towards allergic disorders. The prevalence of allergic or atopic disorders has increased significantly in children over the last three decades. There are significant variations in prevalence between countries and also within many countries. Environmental factors obviously play a major role. Environmental allergens are responsible for sensitisation, disease and exacerbations of disease symptoms. Preventive strategies at each level are important: Primary prevention is to stop the process of sensitisation and secondary prevention to prevent re-exposures or prolonged exposure in those who have become sensitized while tertiary prevention is to reduce or minimise morbidity. Various allergen avoidance measures are discussed, with reference to India so that physicians can incorporate these in the management not only of atopic patients but also as preventive strategy in high risk families.
