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

In IgE-mediated food allergies, exposure to the allergen activates systemic allergic responses. Oral immunotherapy (OIT) treats food allergies through incremental increases in oral allergen exposure. However, OIT only induces sustained clinical tolerance and decreased basophil sensitivity in a subset of individuals despite increases in circulating allergen-specific IgG in all treated individuals. Therefore, we examined the allergen-specific antibodies from 2 OIT cohorts of patients with sustained and transient responses. Here, we compared antibodies from individuals with sustained or transient responses and discovered specific tolerance-associated conformational epitopes of the immunodominant allergen Ara h 2 recognized by neutralizing antibodies. First, we identified what we believe to be previously unknown conformational, intrahelical epitopes using x-ray crystallography with recombinant antibodies. We then identified epitopes only recognized in sustained tolerance. Finally, antibodies recognizing tolerance-associated epitopes effectively neutralized allergen to suppress IgE-mediated effector cell activation. Our results demonstrate the molecular basis of antibody-mediated protection in IgE-mediated food allergy, by defining how these antibodies disrupt IgE-allergen interactions to prevent allergic reactions. Our approach to studying the structural and functional basis for neutralizing antibodies demonstrates the clinical relevance of specific antibody clones in antibody-mediated tolerance. We anticipate that our findings will form the foundation for treatments of peanut allergy using neutralizing antibodies and hypoallergens.
