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

introductionAllergic rhinitis (AR) in children is a common condition that is a public health problem. Despite a well-codified treatment, clinical improvement is not the rule.

aimTo identify factors affecting the improvement of allergic rhinitis in children under symptomatic treatment.

methodsA 12-year retrospective descriptive study that included children aged 3 to 15 years, followed for allergic rhinitis. The search for explanatory factors for improvement under treatment was done using a binary logistic regression model.

results52 children were included, with a mean age of 7 years (±3). A familial atopy history was present in 37 patients (71%). The presence of factors aggravating allergy was noted, including antibiotic consumption: 31 patients (60%) and overweight: 15 patients (29%). Associated asthma was noted in 42 patients (81%). The allergenic profile has regained a predominance of dust mite allergy (71%) and a significant frequency of multiallergies (79%). Management included therapeutic education and drug treatment. There was improvement in rhinitis in 27 patients (52%) and improvement in asthma in 26 patients (50%). Overweight and high consumption of antibiotics had a negative impact on the therapeutic outcome. A good therapeutic education had a favorable impact.

conclusionAR is a debilitating condition requiring prolonged therapeutic education and drug treatment. The prescription of antibiotics in children with allergic rhinitis should be sparing and weight monitored.
