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

introductionPsoriasis is a frequent and incurable skin disease that is an important issue in contemporary dermatology, although its pathogenesis is still uncertain. Gasdermin A (GSDMA) is a member of the gasdermin protein family which are able to cause pore formation in cellular membranes leading to cell death called pyroptosis.

objectiveOur aim was to investigate the role of GSDMA in psoriatic patients.

methodThe study enrolled 60 patients with active plaque-type psoriasis and 30 sex- and age-matched volunteers without dermatoses. GSDMA concentration was assessed in serum and urine samples of all participants using ELISA. GSDMA tissue expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry.

resultsGSDMA serum concentration was significantly higher in patients compared to controls, whereas urinary GSDMA/creatinine ratio was insignificantly lower. GSDMA tissue expression was more prominent in psoriatic plaque compared to non-lesional patients' skin and healthy skin of subjects without dermatoses. There was a strong negative correlation between GSDMA serum concentration and ALT activity. GSDMA did not correlate with PASI or psoriasis duration.

conclusionsObtained results point to the probable involvement of GSDMA in psoriasis. GSDMA overexpression may probably lead to keratinocytes hyperproliferation and be responsible for triggering inflammation in psoriatic skin. Serum GSDMA could become psoriasis biomarker, whereas urinary GSDMA, not at this point.
