Patients with overlapping dermatomyositis and psoriasis: an experience from a tertiary center and review of the literature.
Observational study in Advances in rheumatology (London, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe coexistence of dermatomyositis (DM)/clinically amyopathic DM (CADM) and psoriasis has been infrequently documented in the literature. Consequently, this study aimed to analyze this entity from our tertiary center and review the relevant literature.
methodsThis retrospective observational cross-sectional study and case series included patients with DM/CADM and psoriasis between 1998 and 2024. A literature review was also conducted.
resultsNine of 331 patients with DM (n = 265)/CADM (n = 66) had psoriasis; six were female, and all were of white ethnicity. The median age at DM diagnosis was 38 years (range: 18-78), and at psoriasis diagnosis was 43 years (range: 18-81), with a median interval of four years between diagnoses. The follow-up revealed that six patients were discharged, two died, and one continued follow-up. The primary comorbidities included systemic arterial hypertension (n = 3) and diabetes mellitus (n = 3). Four patients presented with varicella zoster (n = 1) or pulmonary tuberculosis (n = 3). Regarding the literature review, 15 articles reported a total of 17 cases of overlapping DM/CADM and psoriasis. However, variability was observed in the DM/CADM diagnostic criteria. The mean age at DM diagnosis in the literature was 32.3 years (range: 2-59), whereas for psoriasis, it was 31 (7-63) years. Female patients were predominant.
conclusionThis investigation identified the coexistence of DMPs, with a median age of 38 years for DM and 43 years for psoriasis. The variability in the diagnostic criteria underscores the necessity for standardized approaches to enhance patient management.
