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 is a common immune-mediated disease that affects 2%-4% of individuals in North America and Europe. In the past decade, advances in research have led to an improved understanding of immune pathways involved in the pathogenesis of psoriasis and has spurred the development of targeted therapeutics. Recently, three psoriasis autoantigens have been described: cathelicidin (LL37), a disintegrin and metalloprotease domain containing thrombospondin type 1 motif-like 5 (ADAMTSL5), and lipid antigens generated by phospholipase A2 (PLA2) group IVD (PLA2G4D). It is important to establish the expression, regulation and therapeutic modulation of these psoriasis autoantigens. In this study, we performed immunohistochemistry and two-colour immunofluorescence on non-lesional and lesional psoriasis skin to characterize ADAMTSL5 and LL37, and their co-expression with T cells, dendritic cells, neutrophils and macrophages, which are the main immune cells that drive this disease. Our results showed that ADAMTSL5 and LL37 are significantly (P<.05) increased in lesional skin and are co-expressed by many dendritic cells, macrophages and some T cells in the dermis. Gene expression analysis showed significant (P<.05) upregulation of LL37 in lesional skin and significant downregulation following treatment with etanercept. ADAMTSL5 and LL37 are also significantly decreased by IL-17 or TNF-α blockade, suggesting feed-forward induction of psoriasis autoantigens by disease-related cytokines.
