Shrimp sensitization in house dust mite algerian allergic patients: A single center experience.
Article in The World Allergy Organization journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Cross-reactivity between shrimp and house dust mite (HDM) proteins has been widely documented. However, a significant geographical variability in sensitization patterns and cross-reactive allergens has been reported which may impact the diagnosis and management of shrimp allergy among HDM-shrimp co-sensitized patients. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of shrimp and tropomyosin sensitization among HDM-allergic patients in order to understand the local epidemiology to inform the development of targeted diagnostic and therapeutic tools. Methods: Four hundred forty-six (446) HDM-allergic patients and 126 atopic controls were screened for shrimp-specific IgE using the IMMULITE 2000 XPI® System. HDM-shrimp sensitized subjected were also tested for IgE tropomyosin (nPen m 1) and thoroughly interviewed about their shellfish consumption habits. Tropomyosin sensitized patients were subjected to further analysis including measurement of IgE specific to squid and crab. Results: The prevalence of shrimp sensitization in the HDM-allergic population was 20.4% Conclusions: Shrimp allergy seems to be strictly dependent on HDM sensitization, at least in this geographical area. Therefore, HDM allergic patients should be systematically screened for shrimp sensitization and asked about the consumption of shellfish. Tropomyosin is a major and clinically relevant shrimp allergen that accounts for shellfish-HDM cross-reactivity. However, other components could be involved.
