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

Autoimmune diseases often co-occur due to shared immunological mechanisms, necessitating strategic treatment approaches to manage overlapping conditions without exacerbating each other. A 75-year-old male with a history of psoriasis vulgaris and bullous pemphigoid (BP) developed new-onset pustular psoriasis under systemic corticosteroid therapy, which is known to potentially worsen psoriasis into its pustular form. Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis, showing features typical of pustular psoriasis. The patient was successfully treated with spesolimab, an anti-IL-36 neutralizing antibody, achieving complete remission without aggravating the BP. This case highlights the necessity of cautious treatment selection in patients with multiple autoimmune disorders and underscores the potential role of IL-36 in exacerbating inflammatory responses in BP. Further research into the interaction between IL-36 and BP may provide deeper insights into managing such complex clinical scenarios.
