Safety and Efficacy of Ixekizumab in Chinese Adults with Moderate-to-Severe Plaque Psoriasis: A Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study.
Observational study in Advances in therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
introductionPsoriasis, an incurable chronic inflammatory disease, affects over 6 million people in China. Ixekizumab, a monoclonal antibody against interleukin-17A, has demonstrated efficacy and safety for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, although limited data are available regarding its use in routine clinical practice in China. We investigated the real-world application of ixekizumab in China.
methodsAdults (≥ 18 years) with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis prescribed ixekizumab in routine clinical practice were enrolled in this prospective, observational, single-arm, multicenter, post-marketing surveillance study. The primary endpoint was the safety of ixekizumab at week 12. The effectiveness of ixekizumab, based on the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) and Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), was assessed as a secondary endpoint.
resultsIn total, 666 patients were enrolled; 663 were included in the safety analysis, and 612 in the effectiveness analysis. At least one adverse event (AE) was reported by 42.7% (283/663) of patients, most of which were mild (242/283, 85.5%), and 32.7% (217/663) of patients reported AEs related to study treatment. The most frequently reported AEs were injection site reactions. AEs led to discontinuation in five patients (0.8%). Only three patients had a serious AE. Mean ± standard deviation (SD) change from baseline in PASI score was reduction in 10.79 ± 9.55 at week 2 and 16.80 ± 12.15 at week 12. At week 2, 63.7% of patients achieved PASI 50. At week 12, 93.2%, 77.4%, and 45.1% of patients achieved PASI 75, PASI 90, and PASI 100, respectively. Mean ± SD change from baseline in DLQI was reduction in 5.91 ± 6.27 at week 2 and 9.76 ± 7.16 at week 12. DLQI 0/1 was achieved by 19.8% and 59.9% of patients at week 2 and 12, respectively.
conclusionIxekizumab was well tolerated and effective in real-world clinical practice in Chinese adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.
