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

backgroundAbout one-half of all patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria have low or less reactivity of the basophils to FcεRI stimulation. However, the differences in the clinical characteristics between patients who show normal and attenuated basophil reactivities to FcεRI stimulation are still unclear. Furthermore, it also remains unknown as to what factors induce the poor reactivity of basophils to FcεRI stimulation.

objectiveThe aim of the study is to investigate the differences in the clinical characteristics between patients who show normal and attenuated basophil reactivities to FcεRI stimulation.

methodsWe compared the clinical characteristics, including the autologous serum skin test-positive rates, serum concentrations of anti-IgE and anti-FcεRIα autoantibodies, and the FcεRI-crosslinking ability of these autoantibodies between patients with a negative basophil activation test (BAT) (≤10% CD203c

resultsThe BAT-negative patients showed a significantly higher urticaria control test score than the BAT-positive patients (

conclusionsThe weak reactivity of basophils to FcεRI stimulation may not be due to the desensitization of basophils by anti-IgE or anti-FcεRIα autoantibodies. The time to response to omalizumab might differ between BAT-negative and BAT-positive patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria.
