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

The profiles of sensitization based on component-resolved diagnosis (CRD) differ from region to region in populations sensitized to birch pollen. We investigated the endotypes of birch pollen-sensitized Korean children with allergic diseases using CRD and distinguished the endotypes of oral allergy syndrome (OAS) among them.Thirty-one birch pollen-sensitized children with allergic diseases were enrolled. Specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) to birch pollen and fruit including apple, peach, and kiwi were evaluated via skin prick tests and ImmunoCAP in all subjects. Sensitization profiles based on CRD were evaluated with the Immuno-solid-phase Allergen Chip for birch pollen-sensitization using birch pollen components (Bet v 1, Bet v 2, and Bet v 4), and for OAS using the allergen families pathogenesis-related class 10 proteins (PR-10), lipid transfer proteins, and profilin.All patients (n = 13) with OAS were sensitive to Bet v 1. However, 61% (11/18) of patients without OAS were sensitized to Bet v 1. The level of specific IgE to Bet v 1 was higher in patients with OAS than in those without OAS. All birch pollen-sensitized Korean children with OAS were sensitized to PR-10, and 69% (9/13) of them were mono-sensitized to PR-10. Among patients without OAS, 33% (6/18) were not sensitized to any of the allergen families.Birch pollen-sensitized Korean children with allergic diseases showed unique patterns of sensitization to Bet v 1, Bet v 2, and Bet v 4, and the sensitization profiles based on CRD were totally different according to the presence of OAS.
