Alternaria Sensitization and Allergy in Children and Adolescents: A Retrospective Diagnostic Study.
Article in Journal of asthma and allergy, 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
Purpose: Patients and Methods: A retrospective analysis of electronic medical records to 2011-2021 was performed on symptoms, SPT-AA, AA-IgE, lung function, asthma therapy and bronchial provocation using Results: 149 children and adolescents (5-18 years) with Alternaria allergy were investigated. Between June and September, 86 Alternaria-sensitized patients had asthmatic symptoms and 113 had nasal symptoms (often outdoors or with mold exposure). SPT-AA and AA-IgE levels did not differ between the symptomatic and asymptomatic patients (SPT-AA, p= 0.23). A weak correlation was observed between the diagnostic tests in 49 patients with bronchial and/or nasal symptoms (r= 0.36, p= 0.01). Nineteen patients received provocation, 16 showed an early asthmatic response and 14 a late asthmatic response. Patients with BP-AA had a medium SPT-AA ≥7 mm or AA-IgE ≥16.8 kU/L. Both tests significantly correlate with PD20-AA (r= -0,49, p< 0.01 and r= 0.26, p< 0.01, respectively). Conclusion: The Diagnosis of Alternaria allergy is still a challenge. The weak to moderate correlation between SPT-AA and AA-IgE seems to be allergen-specific. Typical medical history is a key diagnostic criterion. Allergy profiles and climate may play a role in the manifestation of symptoms. BP-AA help to establish threshold values for SPT-AA and AA-IgE. In unclear cases, nasal or bronchial provocation should be performed before immunotherapy.
