[Infections and chronic spontaneous urticaria. A review].
Review in Der Hautarzt; Zeitschrift fur Dermatologie, Venerologie, und verwandte Gebiete, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Urticaria represents a common skin reaction pattern that can be induced by different factors. Triggering by infections has been discussed for many years but the exact role and mechanism of mast cell activation by infectious processes is unclear. In acute spontaneous urticaria, there is no doubt about a causal relationship to infections and all chronic urticaria must start as acute. Remission of annoying spontaneous chronic urticaria has been reported after successful treatment of persistent infections. Summarizing available studies evaluating the course after proven Helicobacter eradication demonstrates a statistically significant benefit compared to not-eradicated or Helicobacter-negative patients. The licensed treatment with a standard dose of H1-antihistamines is not effective in a significant number of patients and infections can be easily treated. Therefore, appropriate diagnostic procedures should be included in the routine work-up, especially the search for Helicobacter pylori.
