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

objectiveThis article summarizes the research progress on the association of vitamin D and food allergy in infants and children.

backgroundIn recent years, food allergy seriously has affected the quality of life of children and adults. Vitamin D is known to be involved in calcium and phosphorus metabolism, and recent research has demonstrated that vitamin D can also affect the immune regulation of food allergy.

methodsThe present study summarizes the research progress on the association of vitamin D and food allergy in infants and children. We searched the PubMed database to identify studies on the association of vitamin D and food allergy published between January 2003 and August 2021.

conclusionsVitamin D in the body through a number of steps into the final formation of biological effects. The implications of postnatal vitamin D levels for food allergy may be even greater. Vitamin D can prevent the intestinal immune system from being exposed to allergens by maintaining the integrity of the mucosal barrier. Many clinical studies believe that vitamin D supplementation can improve infants' and children's food allergy, however, some show negative results or opposite results. A lot of laboratory studies have confirmed that vitamin D is involved in the immune regulation of food allergy. Evidence indicates there may be a nonlinear relationship between vitamin D and food allergy. Further researches need to be launched.
