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

Atopic dermatitis (AD), allergic rhinitis (AR), and asthma are typical allergic diseases, with a common pathogenesis involving increased type 2 immunity. Despite numerous studies, the association between these diseases and metabolic syndrome (MetS) remains controversial. This study aimed to explore relationships between AD, AR, and asthma both to MetS and to each of its components. Population-based, cross-sectional data were obtained from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2019 to 2020. Multiple logistic regression analyses were conducted to evaluate the association between allergic diseases and MetS. The results were compared with those of previous studies of the association between MetS and allergic diseases, identified in a literature review following a search of PubMed and the Cochrane Library. Based on assessments of 1,329, 4,824, and 1,172 patients with AD, AR, and asthma, respectively, negative associations between both AD and AR and MetS were determined, after adjusting for confounding factors. By contrast, asthma was positively associated with MetS (odds ratio [OR] 0.58, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.50-0.67; OR 0.73, 95% CI 0.67-0.78; OR 1.70, 95% CI 1.51-1.92, respectively). The heterogeneous findings highlight the need for further investigation of associations between the studied allergic diseases and MetS as well as each of its components.
