Animal bite anaphylaxis, rarely diagnosed but underappreciated.
Article in Allergologie select, 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
backgroundAnimal allergies are common, with reactions ranging from rhinoconjunctivitis from respiratory exposure to anaphylaxis, usually from animal bites. Since animal bites are also common, this raises the question of how often anaphylaxis occurs following a bite. MATERIALS AND
methodsA PubMed, Google, and Google Scholar literature review was performed using keywords such as animal bite anaphylaxis. An inquiry was made to the Anaphylaxis Registry ANAPHYLAXIE.net to see if additional cases were contained in the registry.
resultsApproximately 40 cases of animal bite anaphylaxis are described in the literature, mostly from rodent bites (mice, rats, hamsters, and guinea pigs). A survey of laboratory animal bite anaphylaxis in the U.S. identified previously unreported cases, suggesting that most cases are not reported.
conclusionAnaphylaxis from animal bites is rarely reported, but occurs more frequently than suggested by case reports and should be considered in a symptomatic patient following a bite.
