5-HMF induces anaphylactoid reactions
Article in Toxicology reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
aimExcessive exposure to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), which is a common impurity in various sugar-containing products, induces serious side effects. Our previous study revealed that 5-HMF exerted immune sensitizing potential when injected into rodents. In this study, we explored 5-HMF mediated anaphylactoid reactions and its underlying molecular mechanisms.
methodsWe investigated anaphylactoid reactions in Brown Norway (BN) rats and Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice to identify 5-HMF mediated
resultsWe showed that 5-HMF induced anaphylactoid reactions by increasing blood vessel permeability in mice, and significantly elevating histamine (His) and glutathione peroxidase-1 (Gpx-1) levels in rat serum. Moreover, after incubation with 5-HMF, β-hexosaminidase (β-Hex), His, IL-4 and IL-6 levels were all significantly increased, thereby inducing cellular degranulation in RBL-2H3 and P815 cells. Finally, 5-HMF also upregulated Lyn, Syk, p38 and JNK protein phosphorylation levels.
conclusionsOur findings suggest that 5-HMF induces anaphylactoid reactions both i
