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

Foods are usually the first suspect as the cause of urticaria. However, a causal relationship is found only in special subtypes of urticaria. IgE-mediated food allergy should be clearly separated from non-allergic hypersensitivity (pseudoallergic reactions). The former may play a role in acute urticaria, particularly in patients with atopic dermatitis. The responsible food proteins vary with age. IgE-mediated sensitization can apply to food-dependent exercise-induced urticaria/anaphylaxis but more often the combination of food intake (irrespective of which type) plus exercise results in symptoms. In chronic urticaria, IgE-mediated sensitization to food is normally irrelevant while pseudoallergic reactions to food additives and perhaps also to biogenic amines may be involved. Another urticaria subtype that may be caused by food is contact urticaria which is mostly found in the context of occupational food handling. Very rarely anisakiasis and nickel may cause food-induced urticaria. Aspirin is able not only to exacerbate and aggravate urticaria but can also enhance food-dependent urticaria.
