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

The aim of this study is to evaluate the real-world safety of brodalumab by analyzing adverse events (AEs) associated with the drug. The AE reports related to brodalumab from the FAERS database from 2017 Q1 to 2023 Q4 were collected. Subsequently, we employed four disproportionality analysis methods to identify positive signals among AEs associated with brodalumab, including Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR), Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN), and Multi-Item Gamma Poisson Shrinker (MGPS). In 1480 AE reports with brodalumab as the primary suspected drug, 168 preferred terms (PTs) exhibiting positive signals were identified. This study confirmed several known positive AEs, such as injection site vesicles and injection site hemorrhage. In addition, the study identified several positive AEs not listed in the drug product information, including palmoplantar pustulosis and extranodal marginal zone b-cell lymphoma (malt type). This study evaluated the real-world safety profile of brodalumab and identified several unexpected AEs, such as palmoplantar pustulosis and extranodal marginal zone b-cell lymphoma (malt type). These findings provide new safety insights for clinicians and may contribute to the safer and more rational use of brodalumab in clinical practice.
