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

objectiveAlthough food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) was first described approximately 50 years ago and research is increasing, there are still considerable unmet needs in FPIES. This article catalogs the areas of progress and areas for further research. DATA SOURCES: Through our personal experiences in caring for patients with FPIES, our personal research, and a review of the existing FPIES literature as indexed in PubMed, we explored what is known and what is needed in FPIES. STUDY SELECTIONS: The studies that have improved the knowledge of FPIES, defined phenotypes, allowed for better-informed management of FPIES, and laid the groundwork for further research.

resultsFurther research is needed in the areas of prevalence, natural history, trigger foods, threshold doses, how and when to perform oral food challenges, and immunopathogenesis of this disorder. Development of a biomarker and determination of the best method to treat reactions is also needed. Furthermore, FPIES has a substantial psychosocial and economic impact on families, and more research is needed in developing and implementing ameliorating strategies.

conclusionBy partnering together, health care providers, advocacy organizations, and families can continue to advance our understanding and improve the care of patients and families living with FPIES.
