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
Objectives: In this study, it was aimed to examine food sensitivity in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) and to investigate the frequency of food allergy in patients with food sensitivity. Methods: Patients aged 0-2 years who were followed up with the diagnosis of AD were included in the study. The characteristics of demographic and clinical and laboratory findings of the patients were recorded retrospectively. Patients were classified as mild, moderate, and severe using the SCORing AD index according to the severity of AD. The presence of food sensitivity was evaluated by skin prick test and serum-specific immunoglobulin (Ig)E results. Food allergy was diagnosed by oral food challenge (OFC) test. Results: Of the 72 patients included in the study, 62.5% (n=45) were male, and the mean age was 9±4.8 months. When the disease severity was evaluated, it was mild in 40 patients (55.6%); moderate/severe AD was present in 32 patients (44.4%). The frequency of moderate/severe AD was higher in patients who were younger (p=0.01), whose symptoms started in the first 6 months (p=0.03), who had a family history of allergic disease (p=0.001), who breastfed for <6 months (p=0.01), who had a higher median serum total IgE level, and a higher percentage of serum eosinophils (p=0.005 and p=0.01, respectively). Food sensitivity in 45.8% of patients; food allergy was detected in 41.7% of them. The most common sensitivities and allergies were eggs white/yolk and cow's milk, respectively. The rate of food sensitivity was found to be higher in male gender (p=0.03) and breastfed patients (p=0.03), whereas it was similar in patients with mild and moderate/severe AD. Conclusion: In the investigation of food sensitivity in patients with AD, it is important to evaluate other demographic and clinical characteristics such as gender and breastfeeding, apart from the severity of disease. The OFC test should be performed to confirm the food allergy in patients with food sensitivity before the recommendation of an elimination diet.
