Total IgE levels in patients with hematologic malignancies.
Article in The World Allergy Organization journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Immune system compartments have a crucial role in the progression or suppression of cancer. Hematologic malignancies are among the most common cancers, and there is conflicting research regarding the role of their relationship with allergies and IgE levels. This study aimed to compare total IgE levels in patients with hematologic malignancies to those in non-cancer controls. Methods: In this cross-sectional study in 2023, sixty patients with hematological malignancies and 90 non-cancer patients attending Sari Imam Hospital were evaluated for total IgE levels along with demographic data. The convenience sampling method was used for the selection of both patients and controls. IgE levels were measured in both groups ELISA method. The analysis was performed using SPSS 20. Results: The most common types of malignancy were ALL (23.3%) and multiple myeloma (23.3%). The median IgE level in patients (7.08, IQR:2.07-19.07) was significantly lower than the control group (42.41, IQR:11.99-145.57). The odds ratio for hematological malignancy associated with low total IgE was 6.79 (CI 95%: 2.90-15.92). After adjusting for age and sex, the adjusted odds ratio increased to 15.89 (CI 95%: 4.14-60.95). Conclusion: Patients with hematological cancers have significantly lower IgE levels compared with individuals with no cancer.
