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

aimFood allergy in children is a potentially serious condition. Continuous allergen avoidance and risk of anaphylaxis can cause stress, fear and anxiety. The aim of this study was to describe health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in children with food allergies in Sweden, and to examine the impact of age, sex, disease severity and the number of food allergies.

methodsThis cross-sectional study included parents of children, 1-12 years old, with food allergies. Fifty-two parents completed the Food Allergy Quality of Life Questionnaire-Parental Form (FAQLQ-PF) online.

resultsPersistent food allergy was reported in 48 (92%) children. Those who had an epinephrine autoinjector, more than three allergies, symptoms affecting 4-6 organ systems, or an allergy to cow's milk reported worse health-related quality of life (HRQoL) than those without. Age, sex and history of anaphylaxis did not significantly impact HRQoL.

conclusionChildren with food allergies face reduced HRQoL when burdened by multiple allergens, widespread symptoms or cow's milk allergy, especially those prescribed epinephrine autoinjectors. Identifying and supporting these high-risk groups is essential to improving their well-being.
