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
backgroundPatterns of aeroallergen sensitization vary by countries. Testing with the minimum number of allergens is important to identify sensitized patients for a cost-effective approach. We aimed to assess the minimal skin prick test (SPT) panel to identify sensitized children with allergic respiratory diseases.
methodsThe SPT results from January 2020 to December 2021 in children aged 2-18 years with symptoms of asthma or allergic rhinitis or both were retrospectively reviewed. All children received 11 allergen extracts (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus [Der p], Dermatophagoides farinae [Der f], American cockroach, German cockroach, cat, dog, Bermuda grass, careless weed, Timothy, Acacia, and molds). The conditional approach was used to determine the allergen selection for the SPT panel.
resultsA total of 688 children were enrolled (mean age = 8.14 ± 3.91 years). The sensitization results were Der p (57.85%), Der f (55.09%), German cockroach (18.02%), American cockroach (17.01%), cat (11.77%), Acacia (3.49%), Bermuda grass (3.34%), molds (3.05%), Timothy (2.33%), dog (1.89%), and careless weed (1.60%). Der p, Der f, and German cockroach were required to detect at least 95% of sensitized children. If the SPT panel added Acacia, cat, American cockroach, Bermuda grass, and careless weed, sensitization was detected in 99-100% of cases.
conclusionsIndoor allergens (Der p, cockroach, and cat) were common causes of sensitization in Thai children with allergic respiratory diseases. Eight allergens were sufficient for sensitization identification in Thai children with asthma or allergic rhinitis or both in clinical practice.
