Immunosuppression causes dynamic changes in expression QTLs in psoriatic skin.
Article in Nature communications, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Psoriasis is a chronic, systemic inflammatory condition primarily affecting skin. While the role of the immune compartment (e.g., T cells) is well established, the changes in the skin compartment are more poorly understood. Using longitudinal skin biopsies (n = 375) from the "Psoriasis Treatment with Abatacept and Ustekinumab: A Study of Efficacy"(PAUSE) clinical trial (n = 101), we report 953 expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs). Of those, 116 eQTLs have effect sizes that were modulated by local skin inflammation (eQTL interactions). By examining these eQTL genes (eGenes), we find that most are expressed in the skin tissue compartment, and a subset overlap with the NRF2 pathway. Indeed, the strongest eQTL interaction signal - rs1491377616-LCE3C - links a psoriasis risk locus with a gene specifically expressed in the epidermis. This eQTL study highlights the potential to use biospecimens from clinical trials to discover in vivo eQTL interactions with therapeutically relevant environmental variables.
