Review in Current allergy and asthma reports, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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

More than 25% of the population suffer from type I allergy. Pollens from trees of the Fagales, Oleaceae, and Cupressaceae belong to the most potent and frequent allergen sources. During the past 15 years, the nature of the most important allergens has been identified by molecular biological techniques, and recombinant allergens equivalent to the natural allergens have been produced. These advances provide insight into the biological functions of important allergens and allow the development of novel forms of diagnosis and therapy. In this review, we focus on Fagales allergens to illustrate the impact of recombinant allergens on diagnosis and therapy. We discuss structural similarities as a molecular basis for cross-reactivities and develop diagnostic concepts by using species-specific marker allergens as well as highly cross-reactive allergens. The identification of the allergen recognition profiles of patients with recombinant allergens allows a more precise selection of patients for available forms of allergy treatment. Moreover, we describe novel recombinant allergen-based forms of specific immunotherapy.
