Apremilast monotherapy for palmoplantar pustulosis: Report of three cases.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Palmoplantar pustulosis or palmoplantar pustular psoriasis is chronic skin conditions, characterised by eruptions of sterile pustules on an erythematosquamous background. High-quality data on the treatment of palmoplantar pustulosis are limited, and none is accepted as being effective in general. Apremilast is a small molecule inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 4 approved for the treatment of plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. We report three cases of palmoplantar pustulosis treated with apremilast monotherapy. Our three cases, as well as previous reports, demonstrate the potential for apremilast to be beneficial for a subset of patients with palmoplantar pustulosis or palmoplantar pustular psoriasis.
