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

Background: Nemolizumab is deemed as a promising drug for atopic dermatitis (AD) patients with pruritus. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of nemolizumab in treating patients with AD and the association between the dosage or regimen of nemolizumab with the improvement in clinical indices. Methods and Materials: PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published from inception to August 2021. Results: A total of 14 cohorts of participants from six randomized controlled studies were included in the meta-analysis. Nemolizumab significantly reduced the pruritus VAS (WMD = -18.86, 95% CI: -27.57 to -10.15, Conclusion: Nemolizumab presented a promising effect based on the difference in the average change in pruritus VAS and EASI scores compared with placebo. The results indicated its efficacy in relieving pruritus and the severity of AD and improving patients' quality of life.
