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 Psoriasis is an autoimmune and autoinflammatory disorder that has a significant impact on patient quality of life. The aim of the study was to assess the immune profiles of patients with psoriasis with multiple cytokine analysis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty-two male psoriatic patients and 24 healthy male volunteers were recruited. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interferon gamma (IFN-gamma), interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-2, Il-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-9, IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-13, IL-17A, IL-18, IL-21, IL-22, IL-23, IL-27, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha were measured in patients' serum with a Th1/Th2/Th9/Th17/Th22/Treg Cytokine 18-Plex Human ProcartaPlex Panel, based on Luminex xMAP technology. RESULTS The median fluorescence intensities of serum GM-CSF, IL-2, IL-5, IL-10, IL-13, IL-17A, IL-21, and IL-22 were not intensive enough to calculate the cytokine concentration. We observed elevated levels of IL-6 (P=0.001) and IL-9 (P=0.003) in patients, compared with the control group. The levels of IL-1beta (P=0.008) and IL-27 (P=0.006) were decreased. In patients with psoriatic arthritis, we noticed a decreased level of IL-9 compared with that in patients without arthritis (P=0.034). The levels of IL-12 (P<0.05) and IL-18 (P<0.05) correlated positively with the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index. We found negative correlations of IL-9 (P<0.05), IL-12 (P<0.05), and IL-23 (P<0.05) with the age of psoriatic patients; IL-12 (P<0.05) and IL-23 (P<0.05) with psoriasis duration; and IL-6 (P<0.05) and IL-9 (P<0.05) with the Nail Psoriasis Severity Index. CONCLUSIONS Multiple cytokine analysis seems to be an important form of individual immune profile assessment before treatment selection.
