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

introductionStudies specifically focusing on drug-induced anaphylaxis (DIA) in children are few. There is no study comparing inpatient (IP) and outpatient (OP) settings in DIA, either in children or in adults. We aimed to compare the characteristics of pediatric DIAs observed in IP and OP settings.

methodsPatients aged ≤18 years who were diagnosed with DIA at our institution over the past 15 years were included in the study. The diagnosis of DIA was made clinically, and diagnostic testing was performed in eligible patients. Patients were categorized as IP and OP groups based on the settings in which DIA occurred.

resultsA total of 162 pediatric DIAs (55% IP vs. 45% OP) were reviewed. The most frequent triggering drugs were chemotherapeutics, enzyme replacement therapies for metabolic disorders, and antibiotics in IP group, and NSAIDs, antibiotics, and local anesthetics in OP group. Parenteral drug use was more frequent in IP group (p < 0.001). Age at DIA, time to DIA, and severity of DIA were similar between the two groups. However, after excluding parenteral drugs from OP group, significant differences in all three parameters were seen in IP group (p < 0.05 for each). Patients in IP group had more nonallergic chronic comorbidities and gastrointestinal symptoms, while OP group showed higher rates of asthma, allergic rhinitis, and acute infections as cofactors (p ≤ 0.001 for each). Antihistamine and systemic corticosteroid use were higher in OP group (p < 0.05 for each), but the use of intramuscular adrenaline was similar in both groups.

conclusionTriggering drugs, clinical presentations, management, chronic allergic and nonallergic comorbidities, and cofactors in pediatric DIA differ between the two groups. Contrary to expectations, the setting did not affect the onset or severity of DIA, likely due to the higher frequency of parenteral drug administration in OP settings.
