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

Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis are chronic inflammatory diseases of unknown etiology, affecting 2-3% of the world population. Initially, psoriasis was thought to be a hyper-proliferation disorder of keratinocytes only, but as time passed, the role of immune system became more evident and now both diseases are considered autoimmune disorders. In last few years, the discovery of interleukin (IL)-23/Th17 axis in pathophysiology of psoriatic diseases shifts the cytokine paradigm from Th1 to Th17 cytokines, focused mainly on IL-17 and IL-22. Therapeutic experiences strongly support the use of cytokine antagonists as an important modality in the treatment of psoriatic arthritis and plaque psoriasis. Studies examining these therapeutic agents which target different steps of the psoriatic inflammatory cascade have also shown significant efficacy. The relatively new IL-23/Th17 axis in psoriatic diseases got more importance with the success of ustekinumab, a new monoclonal antibody against IL-12 and IL-23. In IL-17 and IL-22 knock-out and transgenic mouse models, it has been found that recombinant IL-23 fails to produce epidermal hyperplasia which resembles psoriasis. Also, some success in animal models of psoriasis was found with anti IL-17A and anti IL-22. More studies are needed to validate the efficacy and safety of these cytokine antagonists in psoriatic diseases. Using a historical perspective and a chess game as an analogy, the main objective of this review is to summarize the central role of some of these cytokines in psoriasis pathophysiology and to develop a strategic approach to new therapeutic weapons within the armamentarium of psoriasis treatment.
