Scarring Alopecia in Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Antagonists-Induced Scalp Psoriasis.
Article in Journal of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: A broad spectrum of adverse reactions associated with the use of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) antagonists has been recognized over the past years. Induction of scalp psoriasis is a less known undesirable consequence of the use of these drugs and is not well characterized. Objective: To characterize TNFα inhibitors-induced psoriatic alopecia. Methods: We studied 6 patients with TNF-inhibitor induced psoriatic alopecia and reviewed 28 patients with this condition reported in the literature to date. Results: In addition to severe scalp psoriasis, we report hair follicle pathologies ranging from alopecia areata to scarring alopecia. Prognosis was good, but discontinuation of TNFα inhibitors was required in more than half of the cases in order to achieve a favourable outcome. Conclusion: TNFα inhibitors-associated psoriatic alopecia is rarely reported but requires a high index of suspicion and prompt diagnosis, as timely intervention may prevent irreversible damage.
