Physical Exercise Improves Symptomatic Dermographism.
Article in Clinical and translational allergy, 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
backgroundShort-term exercise may reduce disease activity in symptomatic dermographism (SD), but its prevalence and short- and long-term effects remain unclear and understudied. This study aims to assess the impact of both short-term and regular long-term exercise programs on disease activity in patients with SD.
methodsWe performed a short-term exercise test to assess the disease activity and the critical friction threshold (CFT) using the FricTest before (SDE1) and 10 min after (SDE2) this test on 34 SD patients. Afterward, we asked the patients to carry on a 1-month regular long-term exercise program according to the World Health Organization's physical activity recommendations. At the end of this 1-month period, we performed the short-term exercise test using the FricTest before (SDE3) and 10 min after (SDE4) the exercise test.
resultsBefore a 1-month regular exercise program, 32 of 34 patients (94.1%) showed a reduction in the critical friction threshold after the short-term exercise test (SDE1; 1.95 ± 0.88 vs. SDE2; 0.81 ± 0.86). After a 1-month regular exercise program, 29 of 34 patients (85%) showed a reduction in SD symptoms with short-term exercise test and the FricTest scores were significantly decreased (SDE3; 1.57 ± 0.80 vs. SDE4; 1.01 ± 0.83). After the 1-month regular exercise program, a statistically significant increase was seen in the patients' UCT scores and quality of life.
conclusionsOur findings show that short-term exercise improves SD symptoms, while long-term regular exercise programs reduce disease symptoms and improve UCT scores and quality of life.
