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

Omalizumab is approved for the treatment of chronic severe persistent asthma. As a trigger for anaphylaxis, the frequency of subcutaneous specific immunotherapy (SCIT) is high. We report the case of a 11-year-old boy with severe allergic asthma. During the initial phase of immunotherapy he experienced anaphylaxis and SCIT was discontinued. Because of uncontrolled asthma, despite the inhaled steroids and β-agonists were taken into consideration, omalizumab 300 mg once every 4 weeks was initiated. Currently, the maintenance dose has been reached and SCIT is continued without any side effects. The clinical implication of the above case report is that children with severe allergic asthma who are pre-treated with omalizumab might also benefit in the future from SIT as a causal treatment option.
