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

House dust mites (HDM) have been shown to produce allergens causing atopic allergies in human beings, known in medicine as house-dust-mite allergy or atopy. Over the past 25 years (1981-2006) a survey of dust samples from different places was made in the southern part of Poland, to determine the diversity of indoor acarofauna. In total, 1,532 samples were taken from dwellings, hospitals, libraries, research laboratories, drug-stores, and offices and other workplaces. More than 30 mite species were found of which the most abundant and common were HDM, especially Dermatophagoides farinae. Highest mite densities (g(-1) dust) were noted in dwellings. This survey revealed differences in the occurrence and prevalence of various species of domestic mites between and within (dwellings in) geographical areas. This knowledge may be useful in the field of forensic medicine.
