Predictive factors of quality of life in chronic pruritus patients: A cross-sectional study.
Article in JAAD international, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Background: Chronic pruritus severely impacts the quality of life (QoL) of patients. Due to its multifactorial nature, the presence of factors that can predict itch-specific QoL needs comprehensive exploration. Objective: To determine the sociodemographic and itch-related factors that predict itch-specific QoL among patients suffering from chronic pruritus. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study on a cohort of patients with chronic pruritus at our itch clinic in Miami, Florida from 2016 to 2022 and explored predictors of itch-specific QoL using simple and multivariable linear regression models. Results: Sociodemographic factors that had a negative impact on itch-specific QoL included female sex and multiracial ethnicity. The main itch-related factors that were associated with a negative impact on itch-specific QoL included pruritus in the upper extremity and buttocks/genital regions and associated factors such as pain, cold sensation, sweating, and stress. Limitations: Single-center study at a tertiary care center with a primarily non-Hispanic White population and use of self-administered questionnaires. Conclusions: A variety of factors help predict the itch-specific QoL in patients with chronic pruritus. Understanding these factors can help clinicians evaluate and treat patients suffering from chronic itch.
