Review in Dermatology and therapy, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06182436 (Use of Virtual Reality to Improve Pain and Anxiety Management of Children During Dupilumab Injection for Atopic Dermatitis), which is not on this map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic pruritic skin disease that can have a profound negative impact on patients' quality of life, especially in cases of inadequate disease control. Dupilumab, a dual inhibitor of IL-4 and IL-13 signaling, is approved in the United States for the treatment of moderate-to-severe AD in adults (≥ 18 years old) and in children (≥ 6 years old). In this review, we present results from phase 3 trials evaluating dupilumab's efficacy and safety in adults, adolescents, and children. These trials demonstrate that dupilumab provides rapid improvements (in as little as 1 week) and sustained efficacy (up to 4 years) when used as a treatment for moderate-to-severe AD. Dupilumab not only improves skin signs and symptoms, but also provides multiple health benefits beyond the skin, including improvements in quality of life, itch, sleep disturbances, and pain/discomfort. Dupilumab is generally well tolerated, has a favorable safety profile in adults, adolescents, and children, has no serious drug-drug interactions, does not require routine laboratory testing, and is not an immunosuppressant. Taken together, phase 3 trials demonstrate that dupilumab provides rapid and sustained efficacy and is generally well tolerated for the treatment of moderate-to-severe AD across age groups.
