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, immune-mediated, inflammatory, and debilitating skin disease with significant impact on patients' quality of life. Its pathogenesis is complex and not yet fully understood. However, the IL-23/IL-17 axis is currently considered the main pathogenic pathway in psoriasis. Guselkumab is a fully human immunoglobulin G1 λ (IgG1λ) monoclonal antibody (mAb) that binds to the p19 subunit of IL-23. It is the first of its class, already approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), as well as the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for the treatment of adult patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis who are candidates for either systemic therapy or phototherapy. Several clinical trials have demonstrated potential benefits of guselkumab over other already approved immunomodulators in terms of safety and efficacy. The results of the head-to-head trial ECLIPSE were recently released and are addressed in this review. They contribute to the increasing confidence in guselkumab, demonstrating great potential for long-term treatment of psoriasis. However, further long-term data and additional comparative studies will be essential for positioning guselkumab in the therapeutic armamentarium for psoriasis.
