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 chronic debilitating skin disease with an estimated prevalence reaching 2% of the worldwide population. Psoriatic disease is driven by a network of complicated reciprocal interactions among innate and adaptive mechanisms of immune system with structural components of the skin. Interleukin (IL)-22 mediates keratinocyte proliferation and epidermal hyperplasia, inhibits terminal differentiation of keratinocytes, and induces the production of antimicrobial proteins. The aim of this study was the assessment of IL-22 levels and its correlation with disease activity in plaque psoriasis. The study group included 64 patients with mild, moderate and severe psoriasis. Control group was composed of 24 sex- and age-matched healthy volunteers. IL-22 concentration was assessed in supernatants of T-cell cultures as well as in the plasma of study and control group with the use of ELISA method. Statistical analysis showed that concentration of IL-22 in cultures exposed to staphylococcal enterotoxin B was significantly higher than in control samples (p = 0.005) and cultures treated with IL-12 (p = 0.005). Patients with psoriasis presented significantly higher concentrations of IL-22 than healthy individuals (p = 0.0000001). In conclusion, IL-22 may collaborate with other soluble factors and cells together forming inflammatory circuits that otherwise exist as constitutive or inducible pathways in normal skin and become pathologically amplificated in psoriasis. Targeting IL-22 may be promising as a potential therapeutic for plaque psoriasis.
