Prophylactic Intranasal Corticosteroids to Prevent Contact Dermatitis From Ambulatory ECG Monitor Adhesives: A Novel Strategy.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Ambulatory electrocardiogram (AECG) monitors are frequently used to evaluate arrhythmias and assess symptom-rhythm correlation. The extended use of AECG monitors is limited by complications, such as allergic contact dermatitis, secondary to the adhesive. We present the case of a 70-year-old woman with newly diagnosed paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and a known adhesive allergy who developed an allergic contact dermatitis shortly after the application of an AECG monitor. After her symptoms were managed with a topical corticosteroid, fluticasone propionate nasal spray was used as a novel, off-label prophylaxis before the second application of the AECG monitor. The patient then tolerated the full 14-day study without issues, highlighting the potential of aerosolized corticosteroids as a prophylaxis for managing adhesive intolerance in patients requiring long-term AECG monitoring.
