Omalizumab treatment for chronic spontaneous urticaria: data from Turkey.

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
Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate data from patients suffering from chronic spontaneous urticaria refractory to conventional therapy, and to document outcomes of omalizumab use. Material and methods: We conducted a single-centre retrospective study with 175 chronic spontaneous urticaria patients who were treated with 300 mg omalizumab subcutaneously every 4 weeks for at least 6 months. Efficacy, factors affecting outcome, and complications were examined. Results: The complete response rate was 70.9%. Minor complications were observed in 12% of our patients. Anaphylaxis occurred in 1 patient as a major complication. We did not notice any clinical or laboratory factors predicting response to omalizumab treatment. Conclusions: The findings show that omalizumab is effective and safe for the treatment of chronic spontaneous urticaria with a dosing of 300 mg/month subcutaneously. However, due to 1 case of anaphylaxis in this small group, we must still remind practitioners to be alert for this possible complication.
