Biologics for pediatric atopic dermatitis: A protocol of a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundAtopic dermatitis is a chronic pruritic inflammatory skin disease commonly occurring in children. The objective of this study is to evaluate the treatment of pediatric atopic dermatitis with biologics, as they have displayed immense promising results in several recent clinical trials on atopic dermatitis (AD).
methodsWe will conduct an extensive search for RCTs in several databases, including Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and PubMed, from the inception of the study till 15th May 2022. The primary outcomes will be the proportion of patients with EASI 75/90/100 after 12-16 weeks of treatment. The secondary outcomes will include the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), Investigator Global Assessment (IGA)0-1, body surface area (BSA), Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) scores, and incidence of adverse reactions. All studies will be screened by two independent researchers. They will assess the risk of bias in the included studies according to the RCTs bias risk evaluation tool in Cochrane System Review Manual 5.1.0. Meta-analysis will be performed using RevMan V.5.3.0 software.
resultsThe research results will provide a reference for the clinical application of biological agents in pediatric atopic dermatitis.
conclusionWe aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of biologics in pediatric atopic dermatitis cases and provide evidence-based data for easy clinical application. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42022319052 (https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/#joinuppage).
