Bet v 1-independent sensitization to major allergens in Fagales pollen: Evidence at the T-cell level.
Article in Allergy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundIn birch-dominated areas, allergies to pollen from trees of the order Fagales are considered to be initiated by the major birch pollen allergen Bet v 1. However, the sensitizing activity of Bet v 1-homologs in Fagales pollen might be underestimated. Allergen-specific T-cells are crucial in the sensitization process. The T-cell response to major allergens from alder, hazel, oak, hornbeam, chestnut, beech, and chestnut pollen has not yet been analyzed. Here, we characterized the cellular cross-reactivity of major allergens in Fagales pollen with Bet v 1.
methodsT-cell-lines (TCL) were established from allergic individuals with Aln g 1, Car b 1, Ost c 1, Cor a 1, Fag s 1, Cas s 1, and Que a 1, and tested for reactivity with Bet v 1 and synthetic overlapping 12-mer peptides representing its primary sequence. Aln g 1-specific TCL was additionally tested with Aln g 1-derived peptides and all allergens. IgE-competition experiments with Aln g 1 and Bet v 1 were performed.
resultsT-cell-lines initiated with Fagales pollen allergens varied strongly in their reactivity with Bet v 1 and by the majority responded stronger to the original stimulus. Cross-reactivity was mostly restricted to the epitope Bet v 1
conclusionThe cellular cross-reactivity of major Fagales pollen allergens with Bet v 1 was unincisive, particularly for Aln g 1, most akin to Bet v 1. Our results indicate that humoral and cellular responses to these allergens are not predominantly based on cross-reactivity with the major birch pollen allergen but suggest a Bet v 1-independent sensitization in individuals from birch tree-dominated areas.
