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

introductionPsoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with metabolic syndrome, including obesity. Ceramides (CER) and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), which belongs to sphingolipids, have both biological and structural functions in the human epidermis.

aimTo evaluate serum concentrations of selected CER in psoriatic patients in different weight ranges, the impact of obesity on the concentration of circulating CERs, their association with the course of psoriasis and selected inflammatory markers. MATERIAL AND

methodsEigthy-five patients with active plaque-type psoriasis and 32 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. Patients were divided into 3 groups: normal weight, overweight and obese. Serum concentrations of 14 ceramides were measured by gas-liquid chromatography. The results were correlated with the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), serum lipid profile and inflammatory markers.

resultsThere were no significant differences in total serum CER concentration between psoriatic groups of patients. The S1P concentration was higher in psoriatic patients with normal body weight and overweight than in the control group (

conclusionsWe have demonstrated an abnormal sphingolipid profile in psoriatic patients in different weight groups. Selected CER might be the biomarkers of psoriasis severity and inflammation, may reflect lipid disturbances and contribute to the development of metabolic syndrome.
