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) antibodies are known for triggering immediate hypersensitivity reactions such as food anaphylaxis. In this study, we tested whether they might additionally function to amplify nascent antibody and T helper 2 (Th2) cell-mediated responses to ingested proteins and whether blocking IgE would modify sensitization. By using mice harboring a disinhibited form of the IL-4 receptor, we developed an adjuvant-free model of peanut allergy. Mast cells and IgE were required for induction of antibody and Th2-cell-mediated responses to peanut ingestion and they impaired regulatory T (Treg) cell induction. Mast-cell-targeted genetic deletion of the FcεRI signaling kinase Syk or Syk blockade also prevented peanut sensitization. In mice with established allergy, Syk blockade facilitated desensitization and induction of Treg cells, which suppressed allergy when transferred to naive recipients. Our study suggests a key role for IgE in driving Th2 cell and IgE responses while suppressing Treg cells in food allergy.
