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

Introduction: Atopic dermatitis is a relapsing, chronic, inflammatory dermatosis. So far, treatment options for more severe forms of the disease have been limited. The prospect has changed with the advent of biological drug registrations. Dupilumab is a monoclonal antibody targeting the a subunit of the IL-4 receptor and is responsible for blocking the signalling of interleukin (IL) 4 (IL-4) and IL-13. Clinical trials conducted for over 10 years have confirmed the efficacy and safety of dupilumab's treatment for atopic dermatitis. Aim: Evaluating the efficacy of dupilumab treatment in patients with moderate and severe atopic dermatitis in real life. Material and methods: We retrospectively evaluated medical records of patients treated with dupilumab for atopic dermatitis at the Department of Dermatology, Venereology and Allergology in Gdansk. Results: Ten patients in total were studied. They received dupilumab with standard dosing. The mean percentage reduction in SCORAD score was 52.16% in 8 weeks. Dupilumab was generally well tolerated and did not cause serious side effects. The most common adverse event was conjunctivitis. Conclusions: Dupilumab is an effective disease-modifying drug for patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. The effects of treatment in real life are consistent with those demonstrated in clinical trials.
