[Allergen specific immunotherapy for rhinitis allergica : New applications].
Article in HNO, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundAllergic diseases are among the most common diseases of humans. The immune response towards allergens is regulated by T-lymphozytes and characterized by an interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5 and IL-13 dominated Th2 cytokine profile.
resultsAllergen-specific immunotherapy (AIT) is the only causative treatment option and able to change the course of disease, e. g. to prevent the development of asthma and new sensitizations. The intralymphatic delivery of allergenes named intralymphatic immunotherapy (ILIT) has been evaluated in clinical trials and was demonstrated to be a highly potent application route with low effort and side effects while having equal efficacy if compared with current standard AIT forms. However, studies that verify important questions like optimal dose, new allergen forms, use of adjuvants etc. are still missing. Moreover, it has to be evaluated, whether different indications like rhinitis, or atopic dermatitis are suitable for ILIT and whether it is useful in children. Epicutaneous immunotherapy (EPIT) is a possible alternative application form. It is minimally invasive and basically consists of the affixation of allergen containing patches to the epidermis over 6 weeks. From the studies performed so far, the authors concluded, that epicutaneous immunotherapy is safe and efficacious in a dose-dependent manner after 6 patches only.
conclusionsAIT is accepted to be the only causative treatment option for allergies. New application routes in ILIT and EPIT may become more important and allow for different delivery methods in the future, however further clinical studies are required and in preparation.
