A Case Report of Steroid-Induced Angioedema and Urticaria.

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
Physicians regularly use corticosteroids to treat various conditions, attributing their anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. Cases of allergic sensitivity reactions and dermatitis induced by corticosteroids are relatively uncommon. We present a case regarding an 81-year-old male with a history of actinic keratosis, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasis, who experienced a Type I hypersensitivity reaction with facial angioedema and urticaria on his axilla, torso, and popliteal fossa that developed after treatment with oral prednisolone. This episode also exacerbated his previously diagnosed psoriasis. To treat psoriasis, a dermatologist prescribed clobetasol topical ointment, which did not alleviate the symptoms; instead, it only exacerbated the rash, and he was subsequently referred for corticosteroid allergy testing. North American 85 Comprehensive Series patch testing revealed a positive test for various classes of steroids, including clobetasol-17-propionate, budesonide, and dexamethasone, thus proving a T cell-mediated allergy to corticosteroids.
