Characterization of Chronic Urticaria and Associated Conditions - A Web-Based Survey.
Article in Dermatology practical & conceptual, 2023. 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
introductionChronic urticaria is a common disease, characterized by the development of wheals, angioedema, or both, which can be associated with several comorbidities. Most of the available studies have focused on specific common comorbidities and their association with CU, but have seldom reported the overall burden of comorbidities.
objectivesThis study aimed to investigate and analyze self-reported comorbidities in Polish patients with CU.
methodsAn anonymous online survey consisting of 20 questions was conducted on members of an Urticaria group on the social media platform Facebook. A total of 102 people took part in this survey. The results were analyzed in Microsoft Excel 2016.
resultsIn the group, 95.1% were females and 4.9% males, with a mean age of 33.8 years. The most common diagnosed type of urticaria was spontaneous (52.9%). Angioedema accompanied urticaria in 68.6% of the respondents, mainly those with delayed pressure urticaria (86.4%). 85.3% of respondents reported comorbidities, most often atopic diseases and allergies (49%), chronic inflammation and infections (36.3%), thyroid (36.3%) and psychiatric disorders (25.5%). Moreover, in 30.4% of patients, at least one autoimmune disease was noted. As compared to the patients without autoimmune urticaria, many more with autoimmune urticaria had a coexisting autoimmune disease (50% vs. 23.7%). Family history of autoimmune diseases was positive in 42.2%, and the familial history of urticaria and atopy was positive in 7.8% and 25.5%, respectively.
conclusionsThe knowledge of comorbidities of chronic urticaria may support clinicians to manage and treat patients with this common condition.
