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 skin disease with a significant impact on patients' quality of life. Mild-to-moderate forms of the disease usually require long-term topical treatment, but prolonged use of corticosteroids and vitamin D analogues is limited by adverse effects. With further understanding of psoriasis pathogenesis, new molecules are emerging aiming to fulfil these clinical needs. Tapinarof, an aryl hydrocarbon receptor modulator, has completed a phase III study and demonstrated good efficacy results, even in long treatment courses, with a favourable safety profile. It additionally appears to have a promising remitting effect as patients presented with an average relapsing time of over 3 months. Roflumilast, a phosphodiesterase type 4 inhibitor, also underwent a phase III study with significant lesion improvement and notable pruritus management, and with no reported side effects. Roflumilast was evaluated as an option for intertriginous areas with good outcomes in a small sample, but larger trials are required. The Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription pathway has been targeted in recent clinical investigations with promising options, currently with brepocitinib pending phase IIb results. Ongoing preclinical studies involving interleukin-2 inhibition, RNA modulators and amygdalin analogues may lead to forthcoming clinical trials. New topical drugs are successfully emerging and future research comparing them to classical options will dictate their clinical role in the treatment of psoriasis.
