Effectiveness and safety of risankizumab in HIV patients with psoriasis: A case series.
Article in International journal of STD & AIDS, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Biological therapies represent the gold-standard treatment of severe forms of plaque psoriasis. However, people living with HIV are often under-treated for psoriasis because very limited data are available on the use of biologics in this population. We report four cases of patients affected by HIV and moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, all treated with risankizumab, a monoclonal antibody that selectively targets interleukin-23. After 16 weeks, all patients experienced complete or almost complete skin clearance without any adverse events. Data on the effectiveness and safety of biological therapies in people living with HIV are limited to case reports or small case series, especially for the most recently approved inhibitors of interleukin-23. Our experienced, although limited, supports the role of risankizumab as a safe and effective therapy for psoriasis amongst patients living with HIV.
