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

backgroundDrug hypersensitivity reaction (DHR) poses significant challenges in clinical practice, with some patients experiencing more severe reactions upon re-exposure. Understanding the factors contributing to escalation into more severe reactions is crucial for improving patient safety. This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics and risk factors associated with the progression from non-severe DHR to anaphylaxis.

methodsA multicenter retrospective study was conducted using data from a drug-induced anaphylaxis registry across 10 university hospitals in Korea. Clinical data, including information on culprit drugs, DHR history, and the severity of reactions, were assessed.

resultsAmong 494 cases of drug-induced anaphylaxis, 417 cases (84.4%) occurred without prior DHR, while 77 cases (15.6%) had a history of non-severe DHR. Of these, 43 cases had a previous DHR to a drug of the same class, and 34 cases involved DHR to drugs of different classes. In the group with prior DHR to a drug of the same class, anaphylaxis occurring in daily life was significantly more common compared to those reacting to a different class of drug or those with no prior DHR (48.8% vs. 23.5% or 22.5%, p = 0.008 and < 0.001, respectively). Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), H2 blockers, and penicillins were identified as risk factors for anaphylaxis evolving from non-severe DHR.

conclusionEnhanced vigilance is required for patients with a history of non-severe DHR to NSAIDs, H2 blockers, and penicillins as re-exposure may lead to the progress to anaphylaxis.
