Onset of Alpha-Gal Syndrome after Tick Bite, Washington, USA.
Article in Emerging infectious diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
We describe a case of alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) in a resident of Washington, USA, after local Ixodes pacificus tick bites, which were associated with IgE increases after diagnosis. AGS should be considered a potential cause of anaphylactic and allergic reactions in persons with tick exposures, regardless of geographic residence.
