Exploring the Link Between Psoriasis and Adipose Tissue: One Amplifies the Other.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 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
Psoriasis and obesity, while distinct, are inter-related inflammatory conditions. Adipose tissue (AT)-derived mediators could be pathogenically active in triggering and/or amplifying psoriatic skin inflammation and, vice versa, skin inflammation could drive increased adiposity that triggers the development of several chronic conditions. Gaining insight into their intricate relationship could be essential for effective management and treatment. The aim of this study was to determine (i) the pathogenic role of psoriasis-signature cytokines in contributing to AT metabolism and (ii) the role of AT-derived mediators in triggering and/or amplifying skin inflammation. For this reason, firstly, whole AT was treated with IL-17 and TNF-α, alone or in combination, to investigate their effects on the expression and production of adipokines and inflammatory factors. IL-17 and TNF-α were able to induce an additive or synergistic effect on AT-derived mediators. In order to assess the effects on the skin of inflamed AT by psoriasis-signature cytokines, ex vivo skin organ culture was performed and an increase in several inflammatory mediators was observed. These findings confirm that psoriasis and obesity amplify each other's inflammatory processes and understanding this mutual exacerbation could lead to more effective therapeutic strategies that address both skin inflammation and AT metabolism.
