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

backgroundPsoriasis is a chronic relapsing immune-mediated disease leading to a strong impact on patient's quality of life. The treatment of psoriasis has undergone a revolution with the advent of biological therapies. Currently, Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) and Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) scores are in use to assess the overall severity of pathology. A new self-administered questionnaire, the Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary (PSSD), assesses the severity of six psoriasis symptoms (itch, skin tightness, burning, stinging, and pain,) and five signs (dryness, cracking, scaling, shedding/flaking, redness, and bleeding).

objectiveTo evaluate and compare the efficacy of biologic therapies through PSSD in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis.

methodsThe PSSD questionnaire was administered to all the patients at the beginning and after 6 months of biologic therapy (anti-TNFalpha, anti-IL17, anti-IL23, anti-IL12/23 and phhosphodiesterase-4 Inhibitors).

resultsThe study population included 417 adult patients with moderate to severe psoriasis in treatment with biologic drugs. All the drugs contributed to a significant improvement in mean total PSSD at t 24; anti-IL17 and anti-IL23 led to a significantly greater reduction at t 24 mean PSSD when compared to other therapies.

conclusionThe PSSD, is a new validated instrument useful for capturing psoriasis patient's quality of life and evaluating treatment efficacy. In our study, this score has been useful to put in evidence significant differences between biological drugs.
