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

Background: Patients with allergic rhinitis (AR) and bronchial hyperreactivity (BHR) may be at higher risk of developing asthma. Objective: The study was to investigate whether reactivity to house dust mites (HDM) and serum IgE level can be used to predict BHR. Methods: A total of 75 asthmatic patients were included in the study. All patients performed spirometry and underwent a bronchial challenge with histamine. Results: Seventy-five patients with HDM-positive skin prick tests who underwent airway provocation tests were included in this study. Small airway dysfunction was found in 19 patients. After the histamine challenge, the change of forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) was more than 15% in 48 patients and more than 20% in 42 patients. There were positive associations between serum IgE levels and FEV1 fall value. The following cutoff values showed the best combination of sensitivity and specificity for AR with BHR: Serum total IgE 104.2 IU/mL (area under the curve [AUC]: 0.711, Conclusion: AR patients with HDM allergy have small airway dysfunction and airway hyperresponsiveness, and airway hyperresponsiveness is related to the degree of allergy. Simple measurement of allergen-specific IgE may be the best predictor of HDM-induced asthma in patients with AR.
