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

Cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) is an immune-mediated reaction to cow's milk proteins, which can involve multiple organ systems including the gastrointestinal tract. Immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated response results in rapid onset of allergic symptoms that are easily recognizable. However, delayed (i.e., non-IgE/cell-mediated) or mixed (IgE- and cell-mediated) reactions produce a host of symptoms that overlap with other conditions and vary widely in onset and severity. Determining whether symptoms represent immune-mediated CMPA, non-immunologic reaction to cow's milk, or are unrelated to cow's milk exposure is challenging yet essential for effective management. While the clinical presentation of non-IgE-mediated CMPA can vary, this condition is usually self-limited and resolves by 1 to 6 years of age. Food antigen-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) panels that are not evidence-based should be avoided because they can lead to overdiagnosis of presumed food intolerances. Overdiagnosis of CMPA can result in overuse of extensively hydrolyzed formulas and have significant cost implications for families. This statement focuses on delayed non-IgE/cell-mediated CMPA and assists health care providers to distinguish between and identify varied reactions to cow's milk, discusses the role of diagnostic testing, and provides management recommendations based on best evidence.
