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

backgroundA growing body of evidence links psoriasis to several metabolic disorders, but the causal relationship between psoriasis and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remains understudied. PURPOSE: To measure the correlation between the severity of psoriasis and the degree of NAFLD. PATIENTS AND

methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted on adult patients with psoriasis in the Dermatovenereology Outpatient Clinic of Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital from December 2017 through February 2018. Psoriasis severity (psoriasis area and severity index [PASI] and body surface area [BSA]) was recorded and compared with NAFLD degree measured by controlled attenuation parameter (CAP).

resultsA total of 36 subjects were enrolled with an average age of 49.08 years (±15.52 years). The proportions of mild, moderate, and severe psoriasis were 50%, 27.8%, and 22.2%, respectively. Median of PASI was 6.1 (2-38.4) and BSA was 7.5 (2-93). The proportion of NAFLD was 77.8%. The mean of the CAP score was 250.03±45.64. There was no statistically significant correlation between psoriasis severity based on PASI and CAP score (r = 0.258; p = 0.128). However, if the degree of psoriasis was based on BSA, a significant correlation was found (r = 0.382; p = 0.021). The body mass index (BMI) and abdominal circumference were significantly correlated with CAP score (r = 0.448, p = 0.006 and r = 0.485, p = 0.003, respectively).

conclusionPsoriasis extension correlates with NAFLD severity; further studies should assess in detail the effect of therapies on this pathophysiological link.
