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

aimWe aimed to investigate the systemic and biologic agent choices of dermatologists in Ireland for those patients with psoriasis and a cancer diagnosis.

methodsAn electronic questionnaire was circulated to the Irish Association of Dermatology members using the survey platform, Jotform, between December 2023-June 2025.

resultsIn total there were 27 responses. Methotrexate was selected most commonly for all scenarios > 5 years remission. In all clinical scenarios, fumaric acid esters were the least frequently selected agents. In general, tumour necrosis factor-alpha inhibitors were the next least commonly selected. Apremilast was selected most commonly for a current malignancy of stage 1 breast cancer (26%), lymphoma (22%) and metastatic RCC (30%).

conclusionIn general, systemic and biologic agents are used by Irish dermatologists in the setting of psoriasis and cancer.
