Pulmonary comorbidities in psoriasis are associated with a high risk of respiratory failure.
Article in The Journal of international medical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesTo identify respiratory comorbidities associated with a high risk of developing respiratory failure in subjects with psoriasis.
methodsThis was a cross-sectional analysis of data from subjects enrolled in the UK Biobank cohort. All diagnoses were self-reported. The risk of each respiratory comorbidity was compared by logistic regression models adjusting for age, sex, weight, diabetes mellitus, and smoking history; the risk of comorbid respiratory failure for each pulmonary comorbidity was also compared.
resultsOf the 472,782 Caucasian subjects in the database, 3,285 self-reported a diagnosis of psoriasis. More men and smokers reported psoriasis and were older, had higher weight and body mass index, and lower pulmonary function than non-psoriatic subjects. Those with psoriasis were at significantly higher risk for multiple pulmonary comorbidities compared to those without psoriasis. Furthermore, those with psoriasis had a higher risk for respiratory failure accompanied by asthma and airflow limitation than non-psoriatic subjects.
conclusionsSubjects with psoriasis and pulmonary comorbidities, such as asthma and airflow limitation, are at increased risk for respiratory failure. Common immunopathological links implicating a 'skin-lung axis' may underlie psoriasis and pulmonary comorbidities.
