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

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease, and skin barrier defects are often observed in patients with AD. So far, few association studies between FLG loss-of-function mutations and onset of AD in longitudinal studies of early childhood have been reported. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the effect of FLG loss-of-function mutations on the development of AD in a longitudinal birth cohort study. The status of AD diagnosis at each age until 6 years was collected from the Tokyo Children's Health, Illness, and Development (T-CHILD) study. We analyzed eight loss-of-function mutations in FLG in 712 participants. FLG loss-of-function mutations were significantly associated with AD onset in infancy (≤2 years) (P < 0.001, OR 3.54, 95% CI 1.88-6.65), but not with AD onset in childhood (≥3 years) (P = 0.981, OR 0.99, 95% CI 0.29-3.36), and none of the children in the present cohort who developed AD at 5 years of age or later carried FLG loss-of-function mutations. Our data support the notion that the effect of FLG loss-of-function mutations is prominent during a very early stage of life.
