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

objectivesTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of omalizumab in the treatment of moderate or severe allergic asthma in children with serum total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels >1 500 IU/mL.

methodsA total of 95 children with moderate or severe allergic asthma, who were treated at the Department of Respiratory Medicine in Anhui Provincial Children's Hospital from December 2020 to May 2022, were enrolled. Based on their serum total IgE levels and whether they received omalizumab treatment, they were divided into a control group (IgE >1 500 IU/mL, no omalizumab treatment), a normal treatment group (IgE levels between 30 and 1 500 IU/mL, omalizumab treatment), and an ultra-high IgE treatment group (IgE >1 500 IU/mL, omalizumab treatment). The differences in clinical characteristics, Childhood Asthma Control Test (C-ACT) scores before and after treatment, the proportion of acute attacks, IgE levels, pulmonary function indicators, and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) concentrations were analyzed among the three groups.

resultsAt the 8th week of treatment, the normal treatment group and the ultra-high IgE treatment group had higher C-ACT scores, forced expiratory volume in first second (FEV

conclusionsOmalizumab therapy has a certain clinical efficacy in children with moderate or severe allergic asthma and serum total IgE levels >1 500 IU/mL, with no significant difference in efficacy compared to children with serum total IgE levels between 30 and 1 500 IU/mL.
