Systemic immunobiological, immunosuppressant, and oncologic agents for the treatment of dermatologic diseases during the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic emergency: A quick review for a quick consultation.
Review in Dermatologic therapy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The precision medicine era has helped to better manage patients with immunological and oncological diseases, improving the quality of life of this class of patients. Regarding the management of these patients and positivity to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), currently, limited data are available and information is evolving. In this quick review, we have analyzed the mechanisms of action and related infective risk of drugs used for the treatment of immune-mediated and oncologic skin conditions during the daily clinical practice. In general, immunosuppressant and antineoplastic agents for dermatologic treatments do not require suspension and do not require special measures, if not those commonly observed. In the case of a coronavirus disease (COVID-19) patient with complications (such as pneumonia, respiratory failure), treatment suspension should always be considered after taking into account the general condition of the patient, the risk-benefit ratio, and the pathophysiology of COVID-19 infection. The COVID-19 emergency pandemic does not imply undertreatment of existing skin conditions, which together with the SARS-CoV-2 infection may jeopardize the patient's life.
