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

backgroundAcetylsalicylic acid/aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used drugs that may cause hypersensitivity reactions in a substantial proportion of patients. Physicians ought to be aware of these situations.

objectiveWe aimed to present the clinical characteristics and rates of tolerability to cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitor analgesics in patients who had admitted due to multiple cross-reactive type of NSAID hypersensitivity.

methodsThe files of the patients who had admitted with multiple NSAIDs-induced symptoms were investigated retrospectively. Age, sex, underlying diseases, clinical manifestation, skin test results, and drug provocation test results were analyzed.

resultsIn 105 patients with multiple cross-reactive type of NSAID hypersensitivity, we found the rate of cross-reactivity to any of the relatively safe alternatives including paracetamol, meloxicam, and nimesulide to be 16.1%. The rate of cross-reactivity to these relatively safe drugs was significantly higher in patients with a history of anaphylaxis induced by NSAID intake (

conclusionThe diagnosis of COX-1-mediated multiple NSAID hypersensitivity can be often established with a detailed history. Although rare, severe hypersensitivity reactions may be observed in these patients. Undesired situations for both patients and physicians may be avoided by testing relatively safe paracetamol and COX-2 inhibitors in experienced centers.
