Recurrent Chronic Idiopathic Urticaria Post-hysterectomy and Loss of Xolair Effectiveness: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
We present the case of a 44-year-old woman with a history of chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU) who initially achieved remission with omalizumab (Xolair) but experienced a relapse following a hysterectomy. Despite reinitiating treatment, her symptoms persisted, requiring escalating doses of antihistamines and systemic corticosteroids. This case highlights the potential role of hormonal shifts and surgical stress in triggering urticaria recurrence and contributing to biologic treatment failure, though causality remains unproven due to the lack of objective hormonal or immunologic data. It underscores the importance of closely monitoring treatment response over time and exploring alternative therapeutic strategies when standard approaches prove inadequate. Further research is needed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying post-surgical urticaria exacerbations and optimize long-term management for affected patients.
