Kaposi's Varicelliform Eruption After Treatment With Ixekizumab in a Patient With Pityriasis Rubra Pilaris.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP) is a rare condition characterized by red-orange plaques with islands of sparing with follicular and palmoplantar hyperkeratosis. The disease can be difficult to treat and often requires patients to trial multiple therapeutic options. In recent years, targeted biologic therapies have increasingly been trialed due to their relative efficacy and favorable safety profile. Ixekizumab, an interleukin-17 inhibitor, is one such therapy that has demonstrated efficacy in PRP with few reported adverse events. We present a PRP patient who developed Kaposi's varicelliform eruption followed by a pseudomonal superinfection three months after initiation of ixekizumab.
