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

Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated disease involving complex interaction of T cells and keratinocytes. The comprehensive pathogenesis of psoriasis is not fully understood but the IL-23/Th17 axis is a central pathway in driving disease development. Guselkumab is the first treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis that specifically targets the p19 subunit of IL-23. The benefit of guselkumab has been established by a number of clinical trials including demonstration of greater long-term efficacy in recent comparator trials. This review addresses the results of head-to-head trials (ECLIPSE, IXORA-R, and POLARIS) that compared guselkumab to secukinumab, ixekizumab, and fumaric acid esters. The previously demonstrated long-term efficacy of guselkumab has been corroborated by many recently published studies. The effective and safe profile, convenient dosing, and improved quality of life in patients make gulselkumab a viable first-line treatment option for moderate-to-severe psoriasis.
