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 mastocytosis have a higher risk of anaphylactic reactions. This study aims to assess the prevalence and risk factors of anaphylaxis among patients diagnosed with Systemic Mastocytosis (SM), including pre-diagnostic Systemic Mastocytosis (pre-SM), a subgroup of patients often overlooked in current classifications. Methods: A retrospective monocentric study was conducted at Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico in Milan, Italy. Patients aged ≥18 years diagnosed with SM or pre-SM between January 2009 and May 2025 were included. Demographic, clinical and laboratory data were analyzed using chi-squared test or Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests. Results: At the time of diagnosis, out of 162 patients (53% women), 29 (18%) experienced at least one episode of anaphylaxis. Hymenoptera venom was the main trigger (51.7%), followed by drugs (27.6%) and idiopathic cases (20.7%). Patients with anaphylaxis had 7% pre-SM, 48% BMM, 28% ISM, 0% SSM, 7% ASM, 10% SM-AHN, ( Conclusion: Anaphylaxis is a relevant issue not only in acknowledged variants of SM, but also in pre-diagnostic forms. Idiopathic anaphylaxis may occur across different subtypes. Hymenoptera venom is the main trigger in indolent forms, whereas drug-induced reactions predominate in ISM and advanced SM, mainly through IgE-independent mechanisms. The risk of anaphylaxis is higher in pre-SM and ISM without cutaneous involvement, particularly in case of Hymenoptera venom sensitization. Our results highlight the need for allergological risk assessment and close monitoring especially in patients without skin lesions or with Hymenoptera venom sensitization.
