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

High levels of serum vitamin D-binding protein have been shown previously in patients with psoriasis compared with healthy controls; a possible role in inflammation is implied. The primary objective of this study was to investigate the impact of 24-week etanercept treatment on vitamin D status and vitamin D-binding protein in patients with psoriasis. The secondary aim was to explore whether pre-treatment vitamin D levels could predict the treatment effect. A prospective observational study was performed, including 20 patients with psoriasis and 15 controls. Serum samples were analyzed for, among others, vitamin D metabolites, vitamin D-binding protein and highly sensitive C-reactive protein. Baseline levels of vitamin D-binding protein were higher in patients with self-reported arthropathy than in those without. After 24 weeks' treatment, an improvement in psoriasis was noted, as was a decrease in highly sensitive C-reactive protein. Vitamin D-binding protein decreased in those with self-reported arthropathy. Higher baseline levels of vitamin D were associated with faster and greater improvement in psoriasis. Vitamin D-binding protein may have an inflammatory biomarker role.
