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

purposeAtopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic condition characterized not only by skin lesions but also by significant patient burden, impacting mental health and quality of life. The Atopic Dermatitis Control Tool (ADCT) is recommended as an assessment tool for evaluating the long-term management of AD. However, there is a scarcity of studies comparing the utility of ADCT in real-world clinical practice to that of the other existing AD evaluation tools. This study aimed to investigate long-term changes in the ADCT and examine its correlations with the other evaluation tools in AD patients undergoing dupilumab treatment.

methodsA retrospective study was conducted on 89 outpatients with AD who received treatment with dupilumab between April 2020 and March 2023. Patients underwent assessments using the ADCT and other evaluation tools before treatment initiation and at 1, 2, and 3 years following treatment commencement.

resultsOf the 89 patients, with a mean age of 28.7 years (range: 12 to 65 years), 68 (76.4%) were male. All 89 patients were followed for 1 year, 44 for 2 years, and 17 for 3 years. The mean total ADCT score decreased at year 1 (58.2% reduction,

conclusionsOur findings indicate that the ADCT can serve as a reliable tool for assessing long-term control of AD in real-world settings.
