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

backgroundPsoriasis, a prevalent autoimmune skin condition, considerably impairs the quality of life of those who are affected by it. Several studies have demonstrated that obesity significantly contributes to both the onset and progression of psoriasis. Relative fat mass (RFM), a novel obesity index, provides a more precise measure by incorporating both height and waist circumference (WC). The aim of this study was to investigate the association between RFM and psoriasis risk, taking into account the intermediary role played by the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI).

methodsThe cross-sectional study assessed data from 8,479 adults who participated in the NHANES cycles from 2003 to 2006 and 2009 to 2014. To examine the association between RFM and psoriasis, both multivariate logistic regression model and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analyses were conducted. A mediation analysis was used to clarify the role of SIRI in the association between RFM and psoriasis.

resultsHigher RFM was significantly associated with a 5% higher risk of developing psoriasis (odds ratio [OR] = 1.05, 95% confidence interval [CI]:1.02-1.08), with RFM quartiles indicating a significant trend (P

conclusionElevated RFM are associated with an increased prevalence of psoriasis. RFM has the potential to be a beneficial anthropometric measure for more accurately predicting psoriasis risk.
