Chronic Urticaria in Children: an Update on Diagnosis and Treatment.
Review in Current allergy and asthma reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
purpose of reviewBoth adults and children are frequently affected by symptoms of itchy urticarial lesions that cause considerable distress and impact nearly all their daily activities. A comprehensive history is critical to identify the etiology in patients who have chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) (those with symptoms for > 6 weeks) and is more important than extensive laboratory serum tests. Unfortunately, most of the current treatment guidelines have been based on data from adult studies since there is rare data on children. These treatment algorithms have been subsequently used to extrapolate treatments for children. RECENT
findingsCurrent treatment regiments do not achieve complete success in all patients, neither adults nor children. As the pathophysiology of chronic urticaria slowly becomes defined, novel therapies are being tested which target these individual molecular pathways to treat those that continue to experience symptoms. Future studies are required to establish the natural history, risks/benefits and efficacy of current medications, and biologics used to treat CSU in children.
