Treatment of Erythrodermic Psoriasis in Children with Secukinumab: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Erythrodermic psoriasis (EP) is a rare and severe type of psoriasis. Common systemic therapies for children with EP include treatment with glucocorticoids, cyclosporine, acitretin, and methotrexate. Although these drugs are effective, they may cause serious side effects to children. Secukinumab has recently demonstrated efficacy in treating plaque psoriasis, but its efficacy in EP children remains unknown. We report a case of a seven-year-old patient who transitioned from generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) to EP after routine systemic drug treatment. The patient was then treated with secukinumab. The patient's condition improved noticeably within 48 hours after the first injection. After the fifth injection, she almost completely cleared her skin lesions and achieved Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 90 (PASI 90) scores. During this period, she experienced only one respiratory infection. She completed all 11 doses of secukinumab by October 14, 2022, with no new rash (PASI 100) and no adverse drug reactions. Follow-up observation on March 15, 2023, showed no new rash (PASI 100) and no adverse reactions after medication withdrawal. This case suggests that it may also be effective in treating children with EP.
