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

Treatment of psoriasis associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is challenging due to the high incidence of comorbidities and polypharmacy and the lack of evidence on the efficacy and safety of available drugs in these patients. Therefore, clinical or anecdotal reports provide useful indications for therapy decision-making. A 64-year-old male with plaque psoriasis (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index [PASI]=14.3) infected with HIV for 4 years, with hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, and impaired quality of life (Dermatology Life Quality Index [DLQI]=14) was resistant to topical therapy and acitretin. Tildrakizumab 200 mg was started, obtaining a PASI score of 0 at week 16, which was maintained after 13 months of follow-up. No adverse event was reported, and immune cell levels were unchanged. This is the first report on the treatment of psoriasis with tildrakizumab in an HIV+ patient. A literature search showed that prior to this patient, 38 HIV+ subjects had been treated with anti-cytokine agents for psoriasis.
