The prevelance of food allergy in patients with chronic idiopathic urticaria: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Archives of dermatological research, 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
Chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU) is difficult for patients and healthcare professionals to manage owing to its chronic and unpredictable nature. While the exact cause of CIU is unknown, it is suggested that food allergies may contribute to the development of symptoms. To determine the prevalence of food allergy in patients diagnosed with CIU. This systematic review is reported in accordance with PRISMA guidelines. We included all relevant articles published from inception to April 2023 in Scopus, Midline, and Web of Science. The initial search yielded 282 articles, of which only seven were included after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The systematic review included a total of 1551 patients with urticaria. Approximately 25% of patients with food allergies had CIU. The prevalence of a family history of atopy was 37.9% (range, 24.3-53.8%, P = 0.133). There was a significant risk of angioedema in patients with urticaria (P = 0.039). The risk of CIU among patients with food allergies was estimated to be one in every four patients with urticaria, with a similar risk among the adult and pediatric populations. Patients with food allergies and a history of atopy were at higher risk of CIU. Angioedema is a common concomitant manifestation associated with common urticaria. This knowledge is important to identify patients at higher risk of urticaria and implement the necessary management to minimize potential complications and maintain a controlled disease.
