Inhibitory Effect of Evodiamine on Psoriasis Lesions and Itching in Mice.
Article in Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Purpose: This study seeks to investigate the effect of evodiamine on psoriasis and psoriatic pruritus. Methods: Imiquimod-induced psoriasiform dermatitis in mice was used as a model, and evodiamine was topically applied for seven days. The mice were observed daily for skin damage on the back, clinical score and their scratching behavior was recorded. Blood samples were collected on the final day of the experiment, and the serum levels of pruritus-associated inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor (TNF) -α, interleukin (IL) -23, and IL-17A were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Histopathological changes were observed in Hematoxylin and Eosin-stained skin specimens. The expression levels of transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) 1, TRPV3, TRPV4, and the pruritus-related mediators Substance P (SP), nerve growth factor (NGF), and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in the skin lesions were analyzed using Western blot and qRT-PCR. The effect of evodiamine on the exploratory behavior, motor, and coordination abilities of mice was assessed using open field, suspension, and Rota-Rod experiments. Molecular docking was utilized to verify the binding of evodiamine to the residues of TRPV1, TRPV3, and TRPV4. Results: Evodiamine reduced pruritus and inhibited inflammation by decreasing the levels of inflammatory mediators TNF-α, IL-23, and IL-17A in the serum of Imiquimod-induced mice and attenuated the mRNA and protein expression levels of SP, NGF, CGRP, TRPV1, TRPV3, and TRPV4 in the skin. Conclusion: Evodiamine is an effective treatment for psoriasis and pruritus, due to its ability to inhibit immune inflammation and pruritic mediators.
