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

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common, complex trait, arising from the interplay of multiple genetic and environmental factors. This review provides an overview of developments in the field of AD genetics. AD shows high heritability; strategies to investigate genetic risk include linkage, candidate gene studies, genome-wide association and animal modelling. Loss-of-function mutations in FLG, encoding the skin barrier protein filaggrin, remain the strongest genetic risk factor identified for AD, but variants influencing skin and systemic immune function are also important. AD is at the forefront of genetic research, from large-scale population studies to in vitro models and detailed molecular analyses. An understanding of genetic risk factors has considerably improved knowledge of mechanisms leading to atopic skin inflammation. Together this work has identified avenues for therapeutic intervention, but further research is needed to fully realise the opportunities of personalised medicine for this complex disease, to optimise patient benefit.
