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

Background and Aim: Psoriasis is a persistent inflammatory disorder that affects 3% of the population and is associated with cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the correlations between complete blood cell count (CBC)-derived inflammatory biomarkers, psoriasis prevalence, and all-cause mortality. Methods: Data were obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning 2003-2006 and 2009-2014. Mortality data up to December 31, 2019 were obtained using the National Death Index. The following CBC-derived inflammatory biomarkers were examined: neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), neutrophil/(white blood cells - neutrophils) ratio (dNLR), monocyte count/lymphocyte ratio (MLR), (neutrophil + monocyte)/lymphocyte ratio (NMLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI). Weighted logistic and Cox regression analyses were used to calculate odds ratios, hazard ratios, and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals. Additionally, the prognostic value of the inflammatory indicators was assessed and ranked using the random survival forest approach. Results: In total, data from 21,431 participants with average age of 45.02 ± 0.27 years (49.51% male) were included in the study, among which 600 participants were positive for psoriasis (prevalence rate, 2.80%). Additionally, 79 all-cause deaths were recorded during a median follow-up period of 8.83 (6.67-11.00) years. Moreover, NLR, dNLR, NMLR, PLR, and SIRI were positively associated with the prevalence of psoriasis. Furthermore, MLR, NMLR, and SIRI were positively correlated with all-cause mortality in patients with psoriasis, with NMLR being the most valuable predictor of all-cause mortality. Conclusion: CBC-derived inflammatory biomarkers were associated with psoriasis prevalence, NMLR, SIRI, and MLR values were associated with all-cause mortality in patients with psoriasis. Overall, assessment of these CBC-derived indicators may serve as a simple method for screening high-risk individuals among patients with psoriasis.
