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

objectivesHealthcare ultimately aims to eradicate diseases and restore normality to people's lives. However, until this is achieved for every person, there is a need to support and assist patients with psoriasis using non-pharmacological interventions. These 'adjuvant' approaches have received little attention, whereas dermatologists and researchers strive for better pharmacological therapy. Here, we aimed to perform a scoping review to identify and catalogue non-pharmacological interventions for patients with psoriasis.

designA scoping review.

settingAll healthcare settings. SEARCH STRATEGY: EMBASE, PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO and Scopus databases were searched from their inception to June 2022. Irrespective of the study type, the studies included non-pharmacological interventions for patients with psoriasis. This theme was extracted from the included articles. Two reviewers independently screened and analysed the data.

resultsFrom 1322 initial records, 71 studies were identified and analysed. Non-pharmacological interventions for patients with psoriasis include two levels: organisational and individual. The organisational non-pharmacological interventions included the nationwide healthcare model (PsPSP, ProvenCare, German PsoHealth and Psoriasis Network, IMPROVE model and PsoWell clinic), innovative teledermatology models (mHealth app, electronic Targeted Intervention for Psoriasis study and therapist-guided internet-based cognitive and behavioural treatments) and multidisciplinary interventions. The individual non-pharmacological interventions included educational interventions (therapeutic patient education, psychoeducational intervention and self-management education), psychosocial interventions (cognitive and behavioural treatments, self-help and peer-to-peer support programmes) and others (happify and motivational interviewing-based training).

conclusionsBased on previous literature, a nationwide healthcare model protocol was constructed for patients with psoriasis. This provided the direction for developing a new psoriasis healthcare model and a basis for summarising the non-pharmacological interventions for patients with psoriasis, which helps them adjust to changes in the skin disease.
