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

introductionThe aim of this observational, multicenter study was to assess the real-world use of brodalumab for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in patients in the Czech Republic, using data from the BIOREP registry.

methodsThe study included 273 patients aged ≥ 18 years with moderate-to-severe psoriasis who received brodalumab. Endpoints were drug survival (time from treatment initiation to discontinuation), effectiveness [Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI)], and health-related quality-of-life [Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)].

resultsPredicted drug survival probability was 92.4% [95% confidence interval (CI): 89.1, 95.7%] at 6 months and 84.2% (95% CI 79.5, 89.1%) at 12 months; this was maintained at 24 months [80.4% (95% CI 74.5, 86.8%)]. Younger age, higher body mass index, and no previous biologic treatment were significantly associated with longer drug survival. Absolute PASI ≤ 3 after 3 months was achieved by 89.8% of patients; 92.4%, 77.8%, and 59.1% reached PASI 75, PASI 90, and PASI 100, respectively. After 12 months, 96.5% of 141 patients had an absolute PASI ≤ 3. The proportion of patients achieving DLQI 0/1 was 87.3% at 12 months.

conclusionThis study demonstrated high and sustained drug survival with high rates of skin clearance and improved quality of life in patients with relatively severe disease treated with brodalumab. Improvements were observed as early as 3 months post-treatment initiation and were sustained for up to 24 months in a real-life setting.
