Chronic Plaque Psoriasis in Poland: Disease Severity, Prevalence of Comorbidities, and Quality of Life.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
The epidemiology of psoriasis has not been widely assessed in Polish population so far. This study aimed to investigate psoriasis epidemiological situation by evaluating disease course and severity, management, comorbidities, environmental factors, and knowledge about this disorder among psoriatic patients in Poland. A cross-sectional cohort population-based study enrolled 1080 psoriatic patients and 1200 controls. The mean age of psoriasis onset was 27.6 years; 78.24% had type I psoriasis. Positive family history of psoriasis was reported in 44.81% of patients, whereas itch was reported in vast majority of patients (83.33%). Based on PASI score moderate psoriasis was the most common in studied group (mean 12.63 ± 9.33, range 0−67.2). The DLQI score (12.01 ± 7.41, range 0−30.0) indicated a very large effect of psoriasis on the quality of life. Hypertension was the most prevalent comorbidity (33.80%), followed by obesity (16.85%) and dyslipidemia (11.85%). Stress was the foremost cause of disease exacerbation (66.20%); however, infections (44.07%) and seasonal changes (45.09%) had also an impact on the course of psoriasis. Psoriatic patients were more often smokers (37.59%) vs. general population (27.50%; p < 0.0001). In conclusion, epidemiological studies help clinicians in better disease and patient understanding, which may translate into better management and patient compliance.
