Risk Factors Associated with Weight Gain during Treatment with Dupilumab among Patients with Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis.

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
This cohort study used prospectively collected data from the Swedish national quality registry, SwedAD, to investigate weight gain as a possible side effect of dupilumab treatment for atopic dermatitis. Patients on dupilumab were compared with patients on other systemic medications, e.g., methotrexate, cyclosporine, or Janus kinase inhibitors, and possible risk factors for weight change during treatment with dupilumab were analysed. All patients aged 18 years or above, included in SwedAD between March 2018 and April 2023, who initiated systemic treatment at or after inclusion and had data on weight at baseline and at least 1 follow-up weight measurement were included (n = 157). After 2 years on dupilumab, patients had a mean weight gain of 1.6 kg (p = 0.007, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.4-2.7). In the multivariable analysis, controlling for age at start, sex, asthma, and body mass index at start, dupilumab was associated with higher weight gain than other systemic treatments (3.3 kg, p = 0.005 [95% CI 1.0-5.6]). Asthma was associated with weight loss; male sex tended to be associated with weight gain.
