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

Chronic plaque psoriasis is often associated with autoimmune bullous diseases. Dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) is a rare immunobullous disease that has been linked to celiac disease (CD). To our knowledge, the coexistence of psoriasis and DH is uncommon, and has only been described in anecdotal reports. We report a case of chronic plaque psoriasis complicated by DH in a 60-year-old patient with no known history of CD or associated symptoms. In our patient, DH presented atypically as multiple vesicles along the edges of psoriatic plaques located on the back and hips, and as vesiculobullous eruptions on the fingers. The patient was successfully treated with a combination of dapsone and a gluten-free diet for DH, and secukinumab for psoriasis. This case highlights the importance of screening for CD in patients with psoriasis, as well as other concomitant autoimmune diseases. A gluten-free diet should be trialled in psoriatic patients with positive CD serology.
