Long-term tolerance and efficacy of venom immunotherapy after an episode of Crohn's disease and ankylosing spondylitis after up-dosing.
Article in Allergologie select, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hymenoptera stings can cause severe anaphylactic reactions in patients with an underlying Hymenoptera venom allergy (HVA). In such cases, venom immunotherapy (VIT) is a highly effective measure to prevent future anaphylaxis. The management of patients with a clear allergological indication for VIT and contraindications to VIT (e.g., autoimmune diseases) remains a clinical challenge. We report the case of a 54-year-old male gardener who experienced life-threatening anaphylaxis after being stung by wasps in the head and neck region. After confirmation of a Vespula venom allergy (VVA) by intradermal test and VV-specific serum IgE antibodies, VIT was started using a rush protocol. One month after reaching the maintenance dose, the patient experienced a worsening of his pre-existing Crohn's disease and ankylosing spondylitis. VIT was stopped, and the autoimmune diseases were treated with systemic steroids and sulfasalazine. As the patient wished to remain in his profession, and in view of the previous severe anaphylaxis, we restarted VIT after the autoimmune diseases had resolved, using a slower up-dosing protocol. This approach was tolerated without side effects, and the patient tolerated a sting challenge and several field stings without anaphylactic symptoms.
