The impact of hormones in autoimmune cutaneous diseases.
Review in The Journal of dermatological treatment, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
introductionDermatomyositis, systemic and cutaneous lupus erythematosus have a significantly higher prevalence in women than men, emphasizing the relevance of exploring the relationship between sex hormones and autoimmune skin diseases. This review analyzes the interplay between sex hormones and these two skin diseases. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe performed an extensive literature search using the PubMed database from July to August 2023. Search terms included 'contraceptives', 'pregnancy', 'hormone replacement', 'tamoxifen', and 'aromatase inhibitors'. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: This comprehensive literature review shows that there remains considerable debate regarding the use of hormonal contraceptives and hormonal replacement therapy in individuals with autoimmune skin conditions. Nonetheless, it is well established that their use is contraindicated in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome or when antiphospholipid antibodies are positive. Individuals experiencing disease flares and uncontrolled symptoms should also avoid these interventions. Pregnancy planning should be timed to coincide with well-managed disease states to minimize obstetric and neonatal complications. Hormonal breast cancer treatment requires close skin monitoring.
conclusionPregnancy, menopause, contraceptive use, hormone replacement therapy, and breast cancer treatment drugs result in substantial shifts in hormone levels. Additionally, hormone levels are altered by aromatase inhibitors and anti-estrogen medications. These fluctuations can modulate mechanisms influencing autoimmune skin abnormalities.
