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

purposeWe aimed to investigate the prevalence of atopic dermatitis (AD) and its associated risk factors in Korean children in 2022, and to compare to our findings with previous results to identify changes or trends over time.

methodsA nationwide, cross-sectional study of randomly selected schoolchildren aged 6-7, 9-10, and 12-13 years, respectively, was completed. Information was obtained through the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood questionnaire, and comparisons between the current and prior surveys performed in 1995, 2000, and 2010 were conducted using a trend test.

resultsIn the 2022 survey, the prevalence of "itchy eczema, ever" was 18.3% in 6- to 7-year-olds, 21.6% in 9- to 10-year-olds, and 18.8% in 12- to 13-year-olds. The prevalence of "AD diagnosis, ever" in 6- to 7-year-olds rose from 20.9% in 1995 to 35.4% in 2010, then dropped to 13.6% in 2022 (

conclusionsThe prevalence of AD decreased in Korean children aged 6-7 years and increased in those aged 12-13 years, respectively, between 1995 and 2022, with a concomitant rise in allergic comorbidities among adolescents, suggesting age-dependent trends influenced by diverse AD phenotypes.
