1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Psoriasis is an important issue in daily dermatological practice. Not only is it an aesthetic defect but it is also a matter of decreased life quality and economic burden. However frequent, the pathogenesis of psoriasis remains uncertain despite numerous investigations. Gasdermins are a family of six proteins. Gasdermin D (GSDMD) is the best-studied from this group and is involved in the processes of inflammation, proliferation, and death of cells, especially pyroptosis. GSDMD has never been studied in psoriatic sera or urine before. Our study involved 60 patients with psoriasis and 30 volunteers without dermatoses as controls. Serum and urinary GSDMD concentrations were examined by ELISA. The tissue expression of GSDMD was assessed by immunohistochemistry. The serum-GSDMD concentration was insignificantly higher in the patients than controls. There were no differences in the urinary-GSDMD concentrations between the patients and controls. Strong tissue expression of GSDMD was significantly more prevalent in psoriatic plaque than in the non-lesional skin and healthy skin of the controls. There was no correlation between the serum-GSDMD concentrations and the psoriasis severity in PASI, age, or disease duration. Taking into consideration the documented role of gasdermins in cell proliferation and death, the increased expression of GSDMD in psoriatic skin may demonstrate the potential involvement of this protein in psoriasis pathogenesis. Neither serum, nor urinary GSDMD can be currently considered a psoriasis biomarker; however, future studies may change this perspective.
