Emerging Role of Baricitinib in Dermatology Practice: All We Need to Know!
Review in Indian dermatology online journal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Baricitinib is a competitive inhibitor of the Janus Kinase family of non-receptor protein kinases, predominantly acting against JAK-1 and JAK-2 subtypes. By downregulating transcription of various pro-inflammatory cytokines, this drug has shown efficacy across various dermatoses. Approved for severe cases of alopecia areata and moderate-severe atopic dermatitis in adults, baricitinib is being increasingly tried across many other indications with promising results. It is prudent that dermatologists remain aware of boxed warnings and precautions with the use of this much-discussed molecule, including its infectious, thrombotic, cardiovascular, and malignant ramifications. Long-term data on the use of baricitinib in dermatological conditions are lacking and further research is warranted since most data on safety profile is extrapolated from its use in rheumatology. The present review aims to highlight the immunopathogenic mechanisms of JAK-1/2 blockade, approved and off-label uses in dermatology, along with a concise review of laboratory monitoring and the side-effect profile of baricitinib.
