Efficacy and safety of direct-acting antiviral agents when combined with secukinumab.
Article in European journal of hospital pharmacy : science and practice, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundThe interference in the immune response induced by biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) increases the risk of reactivation of infections. Treatment of patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and psoriasis is complex. The efficacy and safety of the new direct-acting antiviral agents (DAA) when combined with bDMARDs remain unknown. CASE REPORT: We present a case of a 44-year-old Caucasian man affected with psoriasis and HCV infection. Throughout the course of the psoriatic disease, this patient received several lines of treatment, including secukinumab, a new type of bDMARD. At the time of commencing secukinumab, new DAA agents (ledipasvir/sofosbuvir) were also initiated. At week 12 post-treatment, hepatitis C viral load was undetectable and the patient remained in remission of psoriasis.
conclusionThis case report suggests that secukinumab is a therapeutic option in patients with psoriasis, particularly in those cases with HCV infection where treatment with DAA agents is warranted.
