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

The prevalence of asthma, rhinitis, and food allergies has increased dramatically over the last few decades. This increase originally started in western countries, but is now also evident in many other regions of the world. Given the fact that the increase is so quick, the noted increase cannot be linked to a genetic effect, and many environmental factors have been identified that are associated with increased or reduced prevalence of allergies, like changing dietary habits, increased urbanization, pollution, exposure to microorganisms and LPS, and the farming environment and raw milk consumption. Although the key role of allergen-specific IgE in allergies is well known, the role of allergen-specific IgG and IgA antibodies is less well defined. This review will provide an overview of the functions of allergen-specific IgE in allergy, the role of allergen-specific antibodies (IgG (4) and IgA) in allergen immunotherapy (AIT), the possibility to use allergen-specific antibodies for treatment of ongoing allergies, and the potential role of allergen-specific antibodies in tolerance induction to allergens in a preventive setting. In the last, more speculative, section we will present novel hypotheses on the potential role of allergen-specific non-IgE antibodies in allergies by directing antigen presentation, Th2 development, and innate immune training.
