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

backgroundOral mite anaphylaxis (OMA) is a syndrome characterized by severe allergic manifestations occurring in atopic patients shortly after the intake of foods made with mite-contaminated wheat flour. A history of atopic disease has been identified as one of risk factors for the development of OMA. This is the report that OMA was induced by the ingestion of Korean pancake prepared with commercial mixed wheat flour contaminated with mites. CASE PRESENTATION: A 15-year-old Japanese girl with a history of atopic asthma and dermatitis was admitted to the emergency department with the anaphylactic symptoms of urticaria, skin flushing, throat discomfort, acute dyspnea and severe wheezing that developed shortly after the ingestion of home-cooked buchimgae (Korean pancake) prepared with commercial mixed wheat flour. The ingredients in the buchimgae were eggs, shrimps and chopped Chinese chives, but the girl had previously consumed these individual ingredients without incident. Microscopic examination of the mixed wheat flour revealed the presence of large numbers of live dust mites. The patient's serum specific IgE analysis was positive for antibodies to dust mite allergens. From these findings, the anaphylactic episode in this patient was concluded to be the result of ingestion of mixed wheat flour contaminated with mites.

conclusionsOMA was induced by the ingestion of wheat flour contaminated with mites. Physicians should be aware of this clinical picture, particularly in the case with risk factors, and recommend that wheat flour should be stored in a refrigerator to prevent mite proliferation and the development of OMA.
