Seasonality of Serum Allergen-Specific IgE Levels in Scandinavian Dogs Suspected of Allergy.

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
Canine atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common allergic skin disease for which identifying allergen sensitization via IgE serological or intradermal testing is necessary to implement allergen-specific immunotherapy. Because serum IgE has a short half-life and circulating levels fluctuate with environmental allergen exposure, the timing of blood sampling may influence serological test outcomes. This cross-sectional study assessed seasonal variation in allergen-specific IgE concentrations and seropositivity rates across pollen and mite allergen categories in Scandinavian dogs suspected of allergic disease. PAX multiplex macroarray results from 5014 canine sera submitted by veterinarians across Denmark, Norway, and Sweden over one full year were retrospectively analyzed for 17 allergens, including tree, grass, and weed pollens, house dust mites, and storage mites. Mean sIgE levels showed statistically significant but relatively small seasonal variation. Seropositivity rates, however, showed clearer patterns: seropositivity for tree and weed pollen was highest in spring and summer, and that for house dust mite peaked in autumn and winter, while storage mite sensitization rates showed the opposite trend. These results confirm that IgE serological test results in dogs are affected by the sampling season and emphasize the importance of considering timing when collecting and interpreting IgE serological tests in atopic dogs.
