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

aimUsing a population-based cohort, Wan et al. examined the risk of moderate-to-advanced (stage 3-5) chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with psoriasis. SETTING AND

designA population-based cohort was constructed using The Health Improvement Network (THIN) database. THIN is an electronic primary healthcare records database containing routinely collected medical diagnosis and drug prescribing data on > 9 million patients in the U.K. Data were collected prospectively on 143 883 adults (aged 18-90 years) with psoriasis. Of these, 7354 had severe psoriasis, as defined by prescription codes for systemic medication or treatment codes for phototherapy. Patients with psoriasis were matched with up to five nonpsoriasis age- and practice-matched controls. Patients with a diagnosis of CKD before study entry were excluded. In addition, baseline data from the Incident Health Outcomes and Psoriasis Events (iHOPE) study, a cohort of 8731 primary care patients aged 25-64 years with psoriasis, was included. Psoriasis severity was categorized according to body surface area (BSA) involvement as estimated by general practitioners. A similar method using a patient-reported BSA assessment tool was previously validated by the same group. Patients were matched by age and practice with 10 nonpsoriasis controls. STUDY EXPOSURE: Psoriasis, identified on the basis of a recorded diagnostic code for psoriasis. OUTCOMES: Incident CKD was defined as the presence of a recorded diagnostic code consistent with moderate-to-advanced (stage 3-5) CKD or laboratory parameters consistent with the diagnosis (estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL min(-1)  1·73 m(-2) ) during follow-up. Prevalent CKD (as defined above) in the cross-sectional data from the iHOPE study.

resultsThe adjusted hazard ratios for incident CKD were 1·05 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1·02-1·07], 0·99 (95% CI 0·97-1·02) and 1·93 (95% CI 1·79-2·08) in the overall, mild and severe psoriasis groups, respectively. In the nested cross-sectional study (iHOPE) the adjusted prevalence odds ratios for CKD were 0·89 (95% CI 0·72-1·10), 1·36 (95% CI 1·06-1·74) and 1·58 (95% CI 1·07-2·34) in the mild, moderate and severe psoriasis groups, respectively.

conclusionsModerate-to-severe psoriasis is associated with an increased risk of moderate-to-advanced CKD, independently of traditional risk factors.
