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

Population aging is a global issue, but is estimated to be more rapid and dramatic in Asian countries. In the past, allergy might have been a minor concern in the elderly (usually defined as ≥65 years). However, recent series of epidemiologic studies indicate that allergic diseases are more prevalent than expected in the aged population. Furthermore, they pose significant impact on quality of life and socioeconomic costs. The burden may also increase in the elderly, due to frequent comorbidities and treatment-related complications. The Korean Longitudinal Study on Health and Aging (KLoSHA) cohort study is one of major research projects on the epidemiology of common geriatric disease conditions in Korea. In this review, we summarized the baseline findings on the prevalence, risk factors, comorbidities and impact of geriatric respiratory allergic conditions in the phase I KLoSHA cohort study.
