Difficulties in interpretation of oral food challenge results.
Review in Postepy dermatologii i alergologii, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Oral food challenge is the gold standard in diagnosing food allergies; however, many testing protocols are available. The present article illustrates the difficulties associated with interpreting oral challenge tests with the example of a six-year-old boy with allergy to hen's eggs. The symptoms observed on the first day of challenge indicated a negative result; however, the consumption of the cumulative dose resulted in anaphylaxis. The interpretation of the oral food challenge can be complicated. The criteria used to determine a positive or negative result are sometimes ambiguous. An accurate interpretation of the results is key to determining correct management in children with food allergy.
