Structural Basis for How Biologic Medicines Bind their Targets in Psoriasis Therapy.
Article in The Yale journal of biology and medicine, 2020. 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
As biologic therapies become first line treatments for many inflammatory disorders, it becomes increasingly important for the practicing physician to be familiar with how these drugs function at the molecular level. This information is useful in making therapeutic decisions and helping patients understand their treatment options. It is critical to patient safety and clinical response that the molecular differences between these drugs inform prescribing practices. To this end, we present and analyze the available structural biology information about the biologics used in the treatment of psoriasis including inhibitors of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), interleukin-17 (IL-17), and interleukin-23 (IL-23). We describe and analyze the molecular surface character of known binding epitopes for medications in these classes, showing that significant differences exist in epitope location, hydrophobicity, and charge. Some of these differences can be correlated with clinical data, but our analysis ultimately points to the need for more structural information to allow for a better understanding of the structure-function relationship of biologic therapies.
