Serum homocysteine level, vitamin B12 levels, and erythrocyte folate in psoriasis: A case-control study.
Article in International journal of women's dermatology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundOne of the most important organ involvements in psoriasis is atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Homocysteine is known to have atherogenic properties, but some inconsistency exists in the literature about its probable role as a risk factor of cardiovascular disorder in patients with psoriasis.
objectiveBecause of some controversies, we compared homocysteine levels and related parameters of metabolic cycles in patients with psoriasis and healthy individuals.
methodsThis case-control study was conducted on 50 patients with psoriasis and 50 healthy individuals as the controls. Serum homocysteine, vitamin B12 levels, and erythrocyte folate concentrations were checked in all participants.
resultsMean serum homocysteine, erythrocyte folate, and vitamin B12 levels did not show any significant difference between the two groups (
conclusionPatients with psoriasis had a higher body mass index and higher levels of homocysteine in men. Hyperhomocysteinemia could be a predisposing factor of cardiovascular events, but more evaluations as a part of metabolic syndrome in patients with psoriasis are needed.
