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

Treatment of IgE-mediated food allergy involves avoiding the food causing the allergic reaction. In association, an action plan for allergic reactions is indicated, sometimes including self-injectable adrenaline. In addition to these dietary and medical implications, there are two equally important ones: nutritional and psychosocial. From a nutritional point of view, it is known that children suffering from food allergy have a growth delay in height and weight compared to their non-allergic peers. Specifically, this condition is directly related to the specific food excluded from the diet, the number of foods excluded and the duration of the elimination diet. From a psychosocial point of view, the child often cannot eat the foods other guests eat. Children with food allergy may perceive an aura of parental anxiety around their mealtime and may be afraid that what they eat could have harmful consequences for their health. Furthermore, children's and their parents' quality of life appears to be affected. The need to manage the allergy and the nutritional and psychosocial problems positions the pediatric nutritionist and the child neuropsychiatrist as support figures for the pediatric allergist in managing the child with food allergy.
