Review in Nature reviews. Immunology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 180 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Immunoglobulin E (IgE) isotype antibodies are associated with atopic disease, namely allergic rhinitis, asthma and atopic dermatitis, but are also involved in host immune defence mechanisms against parasitic infection. The commitment of a B cell to isotype class switch to an IgE-producing cell is a tightly regulated process, and our understanding of the regulation of IgE-antibody production is central to the prevention and treatment of atopic disease. Both those that are presently in use and potential future therapies to prevent IgE-mediated disease take advantage of our existing knowledge of the specific mechanisms that are required for IgE class switching.
