Visualization of childhood allergic diseases based on VOSviewer and CiteSpace.
Synthesis in Frontiers in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Childhood allergic diseases, such as eczema, allergic rhinitis, bronchial asthma, and cough-variant asthma, are a growing health concern around the world. There is a lot of research about these diseases, but a clear and complete study is still needed to better understand them and help guide future research. Methods: This study used a bibliometric analysis of research on childhood allergic diseases from 2014 to 2024. The main goal was to find patterns in publications, main researchers, research focuses, teamwork between groups, and new topics. Data were collected from Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed. The study included English-language articles and reviews only. The tools VOSviewer and CiteSpace were used to study publication patterns, where research was done, which authors and journals worked together, how often papers were cited together, which papers were cited the most, and how keywords appeared and formed groups. Results: The amount of research was different for each disease. Eczema got the most attention and kept growing. Cough-variant asthma had fewer studies. The United States and China were the main countries that did most of the work and had well-known authors. The focus of studies changed from general studies about disease spread to more detailed topics like the microbiome, genetics, special treatments, environmental causes, other health problems that happen together, and the effects of COVID-19. The way researchers worked together was not the same for all diseases. This showed that research was more developed and better connected for some diseases and less developed for others, mainly for cough-variant asthma. Conclusion: This study gives a short look at recent research on childhood allergic diseases. It shows that eczema research is growing fast, but cough-variant asthma is still studied much less, with only 110 papers in 10 years. This big difference shows a clear lack of knowledge. These results can help make better research plans and improve medical care in this field.
