Skin biomarkers predict the development of food allergy in early life.
Article in The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundFood allergy (FA) often occurs in early childhood with and without atopic dermatitis (AD). FA can be severe and even fatal. For primary prevention, it is important to find early biomarkers to predict the future onset of FA before any clinical manifestations.
objectiveOur aim was to find early predictors of future onset of FA in the stratum corneum (SC).
methodsSkin tape strips were collected from the forearm of newborns (n = 129) at age 2 months, before any signs of clinical FA or AD. Children were clinically monitored until they reached age 2 years to confirm the presence or absence of FA and AD. Skin tape strips were subjected to lipidomic analyses by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and cytokine determination by Meso Scale Discovery U-Plex assay.
resultsOverall, 9 of 129 infants (7.0%) developed FA alone and 9 of 129 infants (7.0%) developed FA concomitantly with AD. In the stratum corneum of children with future FA and concomitant AD and FA, absolute amounts of unsaturated (N24:1)(C18-sphingosine)ceramide and (N26:1)(C18-sphingosine)ceramide and their relative percentages within the molecular group were increased compared with the amounts and percentages in healthy children, with P values ranging from less than .01 to less than .05 according to ANOVA. The children with future AD had normal levels of these molecules. IL-33 level was upregulated in those infants with future FA but not in those with future AD, whereas thymic stromal lymphopoietin was upregulated in those with future AD but not in those with future FA. Logistic regression analysis revealed strong FA predicting power for the combination of dysregulated lipids and cytokines, with an odds ratio reaching 101.4 (95% CI = 5.4-1910.6).
conclusionNoninvasive skin tape strip analysis at age 2 months can identify infants at risk of FA in the future.
