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

Disease status is often measured with bounded outcome scores (BOS) which report a discrete set of values on a finite range. The distribution of BOS data is often non-standard, e.g., J- or U-shaped, thus making standard analysis methods that assume normality inappropriate. Data transformations aiming to achieve normality with BOS can be much more difficult than with many other types of skewed distributions, and application of methodologies explicitly dealing with this problem has not been previously published in pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modeling literature. In this analysis, a coarsened latent variable (CO) approach is augmented with flexible transformations and applied for the purpose of demonstrating ustekinumab effects on four clinical components (involved body surface area, induration, erythema, and scaling) in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis from two Phase 3 studies. Patients were randomized to receive placebo or ustekinumab 45 or 90 mg, followed by randomized withdrawal and long-term extension periods. The approach was used together with a previously established novel semi-mechanistic, mixed-effect exposure-response model integrated with placebo effect and disease progression, and with potential influence of dropout investigated. An additional transformation further modifying both tails of the standard logit transformation in the original CO approach was shown to be necessary in this application.
